Translation Singable translation by Henry C. Watson

Una notte d'amore
Language: Italian (Italiano) 
Nel silenzio della notte
Sotto gli alberi fioriti
Come in estasi rapiti
Parlerem del nostro amor.
In quell' ore fuggitive
Darmi il pegno del tuo affetto;
Tu potrai, mio ben diletto,
Farmi pago questo cor.
Come in estasi rapiti
Parlerem del nostro amor.

A night of love
Language: English  after the Italian (Italiano) 
In the silence of deep midnight,
'Midst the shadow of this leafy grove,
In an extacy of deep delight
Our hearts shall tell their thoughts of love.
In this happy hour swiftly flying
Thou shalt pledge to me thy faith undying;
To my wounded heart 'twill bring a balm divine,
Thou art mine, forever mine!
In an extacy of rapture
We will breathe our mutual love

From the Arditi score.
