Vendetta, e amore
Language: Italian (Italiano)
Available translation(s): ENG
Vendetta, e amore,
de l'alma tiranni,
inducono il core
a tesser inganni.
Tu cieco, bendato
facilita i modi,
al fine bramato
seconda le frodi.

The tyrants over my soul
Language: English  after the Italian (Italiano)
The tyrants over my soul,
vengeance and love,
induce my soul
to weave a web of deceit.
You blindfolded archer,
allow me to easily put on airs.
Back up my treachery
once you are at last satisfied.
