Original text and translations
Italian text
- Porro dunque morì.
- Dunque perduto tutto è per me!
- Dove trovar riposo senza l’amato bene?
- E questo il nodo sospirato da noi?
- Questa è la pace?
- Questo il regno felice?
- Ah! ch’io mi sento svellere il cor!
- Come scordar quel volto, quegli sguardi, quei detti,
- e quel costume, se ancor veggio presente il mio bel Nume?
- Ah ch’io più nol vedrò!
- Barbare stelle! Cleofide infelice!
- Almeno accanto del caro bene;
- Ah! ah! m’interrompe il pianto.
- Se il ciel mi divide
- dal caro mio sposo,
- perchè non m’uccide
- pietoso il martir?
- Divisa un momento
- dal dolce tesoro,
- non vivo, non moro,
- ma provo il tormento
- d’un viver penoso,
- d’un lungo morir.
