Perché più franco



Italy
Modernized Italian

Recitativo
Padre basta sin quì.
anche abbastanza ti conferma
mio Padre il tuo dolore
mi conferma tuo figlio il mio valore.
fui da te generato per esser glorioso
ed in terra, ed in cielo.
ecco la via che tal mi rende.

su prepara ormai il bel colpo felice,
se tra noi di lagnarsi or più non lice.
solo la cara madre raccomando
al tuo amore.
addio, mio Padre.

Aria
Perche più franco, e forte,
sia il paterno amore,
mio caro Genitore,
Più non pensare à me.

Prima di darmi morte
Fingere al cor tu puoi,
Che quel che uccider vuoi
Il figlio tuo non è.

su prepara ormai il bel colpo felice,
se tra noi di lagnarsi or più non lice.
solo la cara madre raccomando
al tuo amore.

Prima di darmi morte

Recitativo
Father, enough!
Even if your pain
confirms you enough, my father,
me, your son, confirms my valour.
I was fathered by you for glory,
on earth as it is in heaven.
Here is the path that will provide it.

Come now, prepare the beautiful and joyful blow,
If among us now lamenting is no longer permitted.
I commend only my dear mother
to your love.
Goodbye, father.

Aria
That your fatherly love
may be more sincere and stronger,
my dear father
Do not think of me anymore.

Before you kill me
You can pretend to yourself
That the one you want to kill
Is not your son.[4]
