Quel buon Pastor son io
(That good Shepherd am I)
from La Morte d'Abel
Antonio Caldara (music), Pietro Metastasio (words)
Quel buon Pastor son io,
Che tanto il Gregge apprezza
Che per la sua salvezza
Offre se stesso ancor.
Conosco ad una ad una
Le mie dilette agnelle
E riconoscon quelle
Il tenero Pastor.
