Recitative
 A questo seno, deh!
 Vieni, idolo mio. Quanti timori,
 Quante lacrime, oh Dio,
 Costi alla sposa tua.
 Dunque tu vivi. Oh contento! Oh certezza!
 Oh premio! Oh speme! Oh amor! Numi clementi,
 Nell'offrirmi, pietosi, un sì bel dono,
 Tutto il vostro rigore io vi perdono.

Aria
 Or che il ciel 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 sue barbare vicende,
 Ed in sen dolce discende
 La memoria del dolor.
