Libretto/Lyrics/Text/Testo:

Maddalena sale al granaio e contempla il dormente, poi ripara alla meglio il balcone e scende portando con sé la spada. Nel frattempo Gilda comparisce dal fondo della via in costume virile, con stivali e speroni, e lentamente si avanza verso l'osteria, mentre Sparafucile continua a bere. Spessi lampi e tuoni.

GILDA
Ah, più non ragiono!
Amor mi trascina … mio padre, perdono!
tuono
Qual notte d'orrore! Gran Dio, che accadrà?

MADDALENA
posata la spada del Duca sulla tavola
Fratello?

GILDA
osservando per la fessura
Chi parla?

SPARAFUCILE
frugando in un credenzone
Al diavol ten vaI

English Libretto or Translation:

Maddalena goes upstairs and stands looking at the sleeping Duke, then she closes the balcony as best she can and comes down carrying the sword. Gilda, meanwhile, appears in the road wearing male attire, boots and spurs, and walks slowly towards the inn where Sparafucile is still drinking. Frequent thunder and lightning.

GILDA
Ah, my reason has left me!
Love draws me back … Father, forgive me!
thunder
What a terrible night! Great God, what will happen?

MADDALENA
having put the Duke's sword on the table
Brother?

GILDA
peeping through a crack
Who is speaking?

SPARAFUCILE
rummaging in a cupboard
Go to the devil!
