Per pietà, bell’idol mio
Versi di Pietro Metastasio (1698 – 1782)

Per pietà, bell’idol mio,
non mi dir ch’io sono ingrato;
infelice e sventurato
abbastanza il Ciel mi fa.

Se fedele a te son io,
se mi struggo ai tuoi bei lumi,
sallo amor, lo sanno i Numi
il mio core, il tuo lo sa.

–

For pity, my fair idol
Lyrics by Pietro Metastasio (1698-1782)

For pity, my fair idol,
tell me not that I am ungrateful;
unhappy and unlucky
enough has Heaven made me.
If I am faithful to you,
if I am consumed before your eyes,
love knows, the Gods know
my heart is yours.
For pity, my fair idol, etc.
