Rendimi il caro amico
Language: Italian (Italiano)
Available translation(s): ENG
Rendimi il caro amico,
parte dell’alma mia,
fa’ ch’innocente sia
come l’amai finor.
Compagni dalla cuna
tu ci vedesti e sai
che in ogni mia fortuna
seco finor provai
ogni piacer diviso,
diviso ogni dolor.

Give me back my dear friend
Language: English  after the Italian (Italiano)
Give me back my dear friend,
part of my very soul!
As I have loved him for his innocence,
make him as innocent as has ever been!
Companions from the cradle,
you have seen us and know
that in any enterprise of mine,
I have ever attempted it
with all pleasure and all pain
divided equally between us.
