Qual farfalletta gira a quel lume
Language: Italian (Italiano)
Available translation(s): ENG
Qual farfalletta gira a quel lume,
È il mio Cupido, le belle piume
Ardendo và.
Quel brio m’alletta; perchè m’è fido,
La mia costanza ogn’altra avanza,
Cangiar non sà.
Anonymous libretto after Silvio Stampiglia

As the little butterfly turns to the light
Language: English  after the Italian (Italiano)
[As] the little butterfly turns to the light
Is my Cupid [his] beautiful feathers
Burning.
This [joy] pulls me; because he is faithful to me,
My loyalty any other advance
Cannot change.
