Come suol la navicella tra le Sirti e la procella sospirar l'amato lido, tal si lagna il tuo bel cor. Gran nocchiero è il dio di Gnido, ma nel mare della speme a fugar l'aure serene move i nembi reo timor.
Teuzzone
Opera by Antonio Vivaldi (1678 - 1741)
Come suol la navicella

La timida cervetta
La timida cervetta, che fugge il cacciator, va errando per timor per la foresta. Tal io colma d'affanni, in mezzo a tanti inganni errando vado ognor, confusa dal timor che il sen m'infesta.

Son fra scogli e fra procelle
Son fra scogli e fra procelle debil legno combattuto, sposto a' venti in alto mar. Or m'innalzo, or son perduto, e fra l'onde al cor rubelle temo ogn'ora naufragar.

Base al regno e guida al trono
Base al regno e guida al trono, ciò che giova si comande; le virtù, le leggi sono freno al vil, non meta al grande.

Ho nel seno un doppio ardore
Ho nel seno un doppio ardore di speranza e di timore, or sì dolce, or sì crudele, che il mio labbro dir no 'l può. E alla voce lusinghiera d'una speme menzognera, crudo amor, irato cielo, più resistere non so.

Io sembro appunto
Io sembro appunto quell'augelletto, che alfin scampò da quella rete, che ritrovò nascosta tra le fronde. Pur alfin sciolto, solo soletto volando va. E libero non sa donar pace al suo cuor, se nel passato impegno ei si confonde.

Dille che il viver mio
Dille che il viver mio col suo bel nome io chiuderò. Poi dagli Elisi, ombra dolente, pietosi baci le recherò.

Con palme ed allori
Con palme ed allori t'invita la gloria, con serti di fiori t'alletta l'amor. Ma, povero amante, con doppia vittoria invano tu speri dar pace al tuo cor.

Quanto costi al mio riposo
Quanto costi al mio riposo, empia brama, ingiusta speme! Sorte infida e amor geloso mi spaventa e mi dà pena.

Sì, per regnar
(a Cino) Sì, per regnar diletto sposo (a Sivenio) Sì, per goder volto amoroso t'attendo in sen. Povero amante, tanto costante, il premio godi delle tue frodi, mio caro ben.

Liete voci, amiche trombe
Liete voci, amiche trombe, festeggiamo un sì bel dì. Di sue glorie il ciel rimbombe poiché il mondo partorì. L'aura, l'erba, l'onda, il fiore... nacque a un punto e l'abbellì... e di gioia dolce amore poi lo sparse e lo nutrì.

In sen della virtude
In sen della virtude, contrario ciel, tu puoi versar da' lumi tuoi la crudeltà. Ché il barbaro destino, ripieno di rossor, al chiaro vincitor poi servirà.
