Ian Bostridge
Io resto solo?
No, che tu mi lasci
In compagnia le furie
Figlie del tuo rigor, inique ingiurie.
Misero, così va
Che fedel t’adoro
Traditrice beltà.
Infelice, che fò?
Stolto, non m’avisai,
Che con beltà fè
Non si trova mai.
Languidi miei sospir’
Uscite pur ahimè
Così d’aspro martir
Si premia la mia fè.
Stolto, non m’avisai,
Che con beltà fè
Non si trova mai.
Am I left alone?
No, you leave me
In company the furies
Daughters of your rigor, unfair insults.
Miserable, so it goes
What a loyal I adore you
Traitor beauty.
Unhappy, what am I doing?
Fool, I did not mind,
What with beauty he did
She is never found.
My languid sighs
Go out alas
So of bitter martyr
My faith is rewarded.
Fool, I did not mind,
What with beauty he did
It is never found.
