Vendetta, vendetta

Vendetta, vendetta
pur dolce sei tu.
Un certo piacere,
che l'alma diletta
in te sempre fu.
A cor generoso,
se il giusto la detta
anch'ella è virtù.

Vengeance,/ how sweet you are!
Language: English after the Italian (Italiano)
Vengeance,
how sweet you are!
You have always exhibited
a certain
soul-satisfying pleasure.
If the righteous should prompt it
for the sake of a generous heart,
then She is also a virtue.
