Tradimento!
Language: Italian (Italiano)
Available translation(s): FRE
Amore e la speranza
voglion farmi prigioniero,
e a tal segno il mal s'avanza
ch'ho scoperto ch'il pensiero
dice d'esserne contento.
Tradimento!
La speranza per legarmi
a gran cose mi lusinga,
s'io le credo avvien che stringa
lacci sol da incatenarmi.
Mio core all'armi!
S'incontri l'infida
si prenda s'uccida su presto!
è periglioso ogni momento.
Tradimento!

Trahison !
Language: French (Français)  after the Italian (Italiano)
Amour et l'espérance
veulent faire de moi un prisonnier,
et à un tel degré mon mal est arrivé
que j'ai découvert que ma pensée
dit qu'elle est heureuse.
Trahison !
L'espérance pour me lier
m'a tenté avec de grandes choses,
Si je la crois, elle serre
Plus fort les liens qui m'enchaînent.
Mon cœur, aux armes !
Si tu rencontres la perfide,
Prends-la et tue-la aussitôt !
Chaque instant est dangereux.
Trahison !
