SCENA IX

Accorre la pattuglia del campo a separarli

CORO
Fermi! Arrestate!

CARLO
furente
No - la sua vita o la mia - tosto.

CORO
Lunge di qua si tragga.

ALVARO
fra sé
Forse del ciel l'aita a me soccorre.

CARLO
Colui morrà!

CORO
a Carlo che cerca svincolarsi
Vieni!

CARLO
a Don Alvaro
Carnefice del padre mio!

ALVARO
Or che mi resta? Pietoso Iddio,
Tu ispira, illumina il mio pensier.
Al chiostro, all'eremo, ai santi altari
L'oblio, la pace chiegga il guerrier.

Esce. Si allontanano poco a poco.

English Libretto or Translation:

They draw their swords and fight furiously. The camp patrol rushes up to separate them.

SOLDIERS
Stop! Hold hard!

CARLOS
furiously
No. His life
or mine … at once.

SOLDIERS
Lead them
away from here.

ALVARO
(Perhaps heaven
is lending me aid.)

CARLOS
He shall die!

SOLDIERS
to Don Carlos, who is attempting to free himself
Come!

CARLOS
to Don Alvaro
My father's murderer!

Don Carlos is dragged away by the patrol.

ALVARO
Now what is left me? Merciful God,
inspire and enlighten my thoughts.
casting aside his sword
Let the warrior seek peace and oblivion
in the cloister, in the hermitage, at the holy altars.

Exit.
