Lusinghe più care d'Amor veri dardi Vezzose volate sul labbro, nei guardi, e tutta involate l'altrui libertà. Gelosi sospetti, diletti con pene; fra gioie e tormenti momenti di spene, voi l'armi farete di vaga beltà.
Alessandro
Opera by Georg Friedrich Händel (1685 - 1759)

Quanto dolce Amor sarìa
Quanto dolce Amor sarìa se non fosse gelosia col gelato suo velen. Quel che spera la Costanza, e promette la Speranza, Rende amaro al mesto sen.

Vibra cortese amor
Vibra cortese amor un altro strale del mio rivale al cor, e sol l'accendi allor d'altra Bellezza. Bramata sol da me, per Alma tutta fe l'ingrata non avrà tanta fierezza.

Da un breve riposo
Da un breve riposo Di Stato amoroso, Più Fiero, più forte Di Gloria al sentiero Amante e Guerriero Il Cor tornerà. Se gia tutta in guerra Mi cede la Terra; Il vanto d’Onore S’io cedo all’Amore, Minor non sarà.

Che tirannia d’Amor!
Che tirannia d’Amor! Fuggir chi siegue et ama! Amar chi non mi brama! Misera Fedeltà! Vana speranza! Estinguasi l’ardor. Risolvi non amar. Ahi! Che no’l posso far E forza del Destin la mia Costanza.

Alla sua gabbia d’oro
Alla sua gabbia d’Oro Suol ritornar talor Quell’augellin canoro Che rapido fuggì: Sai perché torna ancor donde partì? La sua prigion gli è Cara Più della libertà. Ma la prigion d’oro Sai perché piace allor All’Augellin Canoro? Più caro al suo Signor Sa ben che tornerà.
