Chi possessore è del mio core
Language: Italian (Italiano)
Available translation(s): ENG
Chi possessore è del mio core
può senza orgoglio chiamarsi re.
Io ch'ho spezzato più d'un impero
ho a te piagato l'animo altero
e più d'un soglio val la mia fé.

Whoever owns my heart
Language: English  after the Italian (Italiano)
Whoever owns my heart
can rightfully call himself king.
I who have turned aside many an empire
have wounded a very proud soul for you,
and my faith is worth more than any throne.
