CORO:
 Placido è il mar, andiamo;
 Tutto ci rassicura.
 Felice avrem ventura,
 Sù,sù, partiamo or or'.

ELETTRA:
 Soavi zeffiri
 Soli spirate,
 Del freddo borea
 L'ira calmate.
 D'aura piacevole
 Cortesi siate,
 Se da voi spargesi
 Per tutto amor.

Language: German (Deutsch)  after the Italian (Italiano) 
Still ist im Meer die Welle,
Alles giebt Muth dem Herzen,
lasst uns die Anker lichten,
die Fahrt wird glücklich sein.

Ihr lauen Weste füllet die Segel mildert 
das Tosen der der Tobenden Stürme
durch euer Fittige wonniges Fächeln
und Alles athme dann Freude und Scherz.
