Fantaisie sur La tempête de Shakespeare
Language: Italian (Italiano)
Chœur d'esprits de l'air: Miranda! Miranda! Vien' chi t'è destinato sposo, Conoscerai l'amore. Miranda, d'un novello viver L'aurora va spuntando per te. Miranda, addio, addio, Miranda! Miranda! e desso, e tuo sposo, sii felice! Caliban! Horrido mostro! Temi lo sdegno d'Ariello! O Miranda, ei t'adduce, tu parti! O Miranda, no ti vedrem, ormai Delle piaggie dell'aura nostra sede, Noi cercarem invano Lo splendente e dolce fiore Che sulla terra miravan. No ti vedrem ormai, dolce fiore. Addio! Addio! Miranda, addio!
