Ecco felici amanti
ecco Imeneo, già scende.
Già la sua face accende,
spiega il purpureo vel.
Ecco a recar sen viene
le amabili catene
a voi per man de' numi
già fabbricate in ciel.

Hymen now descends!
Behold him, happy lovers!
His face is all afire
as he reveals his purple veil.
He comes to render unto you
the beloved chains
that godly hands
have since made in heaven.
