Mi crederai crudele
Language: Italian (Italiano)
Mi crederai crudele,
dirai che fiero io sia;
ma giudice fedele
sempre il dolor non è.
M’affliggono i tuoi pianti
ma non è colpa mia
se quel che giova a tanti
solo è dannoso a te.

You will believe me to be cruel
Language: English after the Italian (Italiano)
You will believe me to be cruel,
you will say that I am headstrong,
but pain is not always a
reliable judge in these situations.
Your weeping does afflict me,
but it is not my fault
if whatever so many people enjoy
harms you and only you.
