Lyrics: Giovanni Battista Guarini
Perche, crudel Destino, ne disunisci tu,
S'amor ne stringe?
E tu perche ne stringe se ne part' il Destino,
Perfido amor?
Thou cruel Destiny, why do you part us
If love joins us?
And you, faithless Love, why do you not leave us
When Destiny leaves?
Perche, crudel Destino, ne disunisci tu,
S'amor ne stringe?
E tu perche ne stringe se ne part' il Destino,
Perfido amor?
Thou cruel Destiny, why do you part us
If love joins us?
And you, faithless Love, why do you not leave us
When Destiny leaves?
