Libretto/Lyrics/Text/Testo:

NABUCCO

Deh perdona, deh perdona

ad un padre che delira!

Deh la figlia mi ridona,

non orbarne il genitor!

Te regina, te signora

chiami pur la gente assira;

questo veglio non implora

che la vita del suo cor.

ABIGAILLE

Esci! invan mi chiedi pace,

me non move il tardo pianto;

tal non eri, o veglio audace,

nel serbarmi al disonor.

NABUCCO

Ah perdona! …

Deh perdona ecc.

ABIGAILLE

Invano!

Me non move ecc.
Esci! Invano!

Oh vedran se a questa schiava

mal s'addice il regio manto!

Oh vedran s'io deturpava

dell'Assiria lo splendor!

NABUCCO

Deh perdona ecc.

English Libretto or Translation:

NABUCCO
Deh pardon, deh pardon
to a father who raves!
My daughter gives me back,
do not take the parent!
You queen, you lady
call the Assyrian people;
this veglio does not beg
that the life of his cor.

ABIGAIL
Go out! you ask me for peace,
do not move the late crying;
you were not, or daring,
in serbarmi to disonor.

NABUCCO
Ah forgive! ...
Deh forgives etc.

ABIGAIL
In vain!
Me does not move etc.
Go out! In vain!
Oh vedran if this slave
the royal mantle is bad!
Oh vedran I disfigured
the splendor of Assyria!

NABUCCO
Deh forgives etc.
