Aria
 Or che il cielo a me ti rende,
 Cara parte del mio cor,
 La mia gioia, ah, non comprende
 Chi non sa che cosa è amor!
 Sono all'alma un grato oggetto
 Le mie barbare vicende,
 E nel sen dolce discende
 La memoria del dolor.

To this heart, ah!

(Sung text translation for setting by V. Righini)

See original

Language: English after the Italian (Italiano)

 ... 

Aria
Now that Heaven has brought you back to me,
You cherished part of my heart,
No one, Ah, can understand my joy
Who does not know what love is!
To my soul, your barbarous adventures
Turn into an object of gratitude
As from my heart sweetly goes away
The memory of my pain.
