Cantata 8 con VV.ni: Scritte con falso inganno

Cantata by Domenico Scarlatti (1685 - 1757)

1. Scritte con fals’inganno
 (Sung text)

Language: Italian (Italiano) 
Scritte con fals’inganno
Certe note dolenti
Di un menzognero cor lessi e mirai.
Lessi sì, traditor, né sospirai.
Figlie non son di pianto e di dolore,
Amor non le dettò né scrisse il core.
Scrivo, che penso ancora?
Penso che t’adorai,
Penso che falso sei,
E piango, nell’amarti, i falli miei.

2. Che vuol dir quel tuo non sono
 (Sung text)

Language: Italian (Italiano) 
Che vuol dir quel “tuo non sono”,
Che “tradisti” e che “perdono”?
M’ingannasti e lo sai tu.
Tua mi vuoi e mio non sei
Ah, spergiuro, ai pianti miei
Che soffrir posso di più?

3. Dimmi, lingua bugiarda
 (Sung text)

Language: Italian (Italiano) 
Dimmi, lingua bugiarda,
Quai sospir, qual amante
Aggiungi al fiero stuol dei miei tormenti?
Senti, perfido, senti,
Qualor t’assale a danno di mia fé
Ombra sì rea, deh, pensa
(ahi, che il duolo m’affanna),
Pensa nascita, onor, e mi candanna.
Ma folle, e che ragiono?
Si sprezzi pur d’un traditor l’orgoglio;
L’onor non manca, e l’amor tuo non voglio.

4. Vorresti, sì vorresti
 (Sung text)

Language: Italian (Italiano) 
Vorresti, sì vorresti
Dal labro mio sentir: “pace cor mio”.
Ma tutto rabbia e foco
Risponde il mio furor:
“Perfido mentitor, bugiardo e rio”.
