Batti, batti, O bel Masetto
La tua povera Zerlina;
Starò qui come agnellina
Le tue botte ad aspettar
Lascierò straziarmi il crine
Lascierò cavarmi gli occhi
E le care tue manine
Lieta poi saprò baciar
Ah, lo vedo, non hai core!
Pace, pace, o vita mia
In contento ed allegria
Notte e dì vogliam passar
Beat, beat, O handsome Masetto
Your poor Zerlina;
I'll stay here as a little lamb
Your blows waiting
I'll let my hair tear apart
I'll let my eyes go out
And your dear little hands
Glad then I will know how to kiss
Ah, I see it, you have no heart!
Peace, peace, or my life
In contentedness and cheerfulness
Night and day we want to pass
