Translation by Max Steinitzer (1864 - 1936)
L'addio
Language: Italian (Italiano)
M'è stato detto che te ne vuoi ire. Per quanto posso, tu non hai d'andare. Tutte le strade le farò bandire, Tutte le porte le farò serrare. Per ogni strada metterò una spia: Tu non te n'anderai, anima mia! Per ogni strada metterò un bargello... Tu non te n'anderai, amor mio bello!

Der Abschied
Language: German (Deutsch) after the Italian (Italiano)
Ist es denn Wahrheit? Willst du wirklich reisen? Bei der Madonna! nein, ich laß dich niemals! Wege und Stege werd' ich die verwehren, Pforten und Tore werd' ich dir verschließen! Auf allen Straßen lauert meine Liebe: Nein, du verläßt mich nicht, mein Heiß geliebter! Auf allen Gassen wacht mein achtsam Auge... Nein, du verläßt mich nie, mein trautes Lieb du!
