Nel sen mi palpita
Language: Italian (Italiano)
Nel sen mi palpita
dolente il core;
mi chiama a piangere
il mio dolore;
non so resistere,
non so restar.
Ma se di lagrime
umido ho il ciglio,
è solo, credimi,
il tuo periglio
la cagion barbara
del mio penar.

My heart palpitates and grieves
Language: English after the Italian (Italiano)
My heart palpitates and grieves
within my breast.
Its pain prompts me
to pour forth tears.
I can no longer resist.
I must get out of here!
But if my brow
is wet with tears,
believe me when I say
that only your danger
could be the barbarous cause
of my anguish.
