Cangia, cangia tue voglie
Language: Italian (Italiano)
Available translation(s): ENG SPA
Cangia, cangia tue voglie, o mio cor, che fedele
fosti a donna crudele.
Non t'accorgi, meschin, che sei ferito?
Lascia, lascia d'amar chi t'ha tradito.
Lascia, lascia d'amare chi ti finge col riso,
col mostrarti il bel viso.
Non t'accordgi, meschin, che sei ferito?
Lascia, lascia d'amar chi t'ha tradito.

Change, change your wishes
Language: English  after the Italian (Italiano)
Change, change your wishes, o my heart, that would
Be faithful to a cruel woman.
Don't you realize, wretched one, that you are wounded?
Leave off, leave off loving one who has betrayed you.
Leave off, leave off loving one who has fooled you with laughter,
With showing you a pleasant face.
Don't you realize, wretched one, that you are wounded?
Leave off, leave off loving one who has betrayed you.
