Libretto/Lyrics/Text/Testo:
Ah, la paterna manoNon vi fu scudo, o cari,
Dai perfidi sicari
Che a morte vi ferir!
E me fuggiasco, occulto,
Voi chiamavate invano,
Coll'ultimo singulto,
Coll'ultimo respir.
Trammi al tiranno in faccia,
Signore! e s'ei mi sfugge,
Possa a colui le braccia
Del tuo perdono aprir.
English Libretto or Translation:
Alas, a father's hand was not thereto shield you, my dear ones,
from the treacherous assassins
who put you to death.
And in vain you called on me,
a fugitive, in hiding,
with your last gasp,
with your last breath.
Lord, bring me face to face
with this tyrant, and if he escapes me
let your merciful arms
open to him.
