by Felice Romani (1788 - 1865)
Translation by Anonymous / Unidentified Author

Volgon tre lune, ahi lassa! e il dì...
Language: Italian (Italiano) 
Recitative
Volgon tre lune, ahi lassa!  e il dì ricorre, 
Il fatal dì che in questa mura io gemo 
Di rimorso e d'amor ... Oh tristo giorno! 
Le mie lagrime accresce il tuo ritorno! 
O padre, o patrii colli, 
O mio dolce ritiro, ove tranquilla 
E innocente io vivea, 
Vi rivedrò più mai misera e rea? 
O Edegardo!  Edegardo!  
Se non tornassi piu! ... Se i giuramenti 
Obbliar tu potessi!  ...  Ah più discaccio 
Questo orrendo pensier, sempre più torna 
Alla mente atteritta!  ...  
Sgombralo tu pietosa, arpa gradita.  


Aria 
Perchè non ho del vento 
L'infaticabil volo? 
Lunge, in estraneo suolo, 
Ti seguirei, mio ben.  
Dove tu sei  --  sen volino 
I miei sospiri almen. 

Perchè non ho del sole 
Gli onniveggenti rai?  
Sempre dovunque vai 
Io te vedrei, mio ben. 
Ove tu sei  --  ti veggano 
I miei pensieri almen.  

Invan da te mi parte 
Di rio destin tenore: 
Varca ogni spazio amore; 
Teco son io, mio ben. 
Lontane amor s'incontrino
L'anime nostri almen.
