Così morir debb’io
Language: Italian (Italiano)
Available translation(s): ENG
Così morir debb'io,
nè sarà chi m'ascolti o me diffenda,
così da tutti abandonata
e priva d'ogni speranza,
accompagnata solo
da un'estrema infelice
e funesta pietà,
che non m'aita.

Thus I must die
Language: English  after the Italian (Italiano)
Thus I must die,
for there is nobody who listens to me
or defends me:
thus am I abandoned by everyone,
deprived of all hope,
accompanied only by an extremely unhappy
and deathly pity,
which helps me not.
