Lyrics and translation National Philharmonic Orchestra, Nicola Rescigno & Luciano Pavarotti - Puccini: Tosca / Act 3 - "E lucevan le stelle"




Puccini: Tosca / Act 3 - "E lucevan le stelle"
Puccini: Tosca / Act 3 - "E lucevan le stelle"
E lucevan le stelle,
And the stars shone brightly,
Ed olezzava la terra
And the earth smelled sweet
Stridea l'uscio dell'orto
The garden gate creaked
E un passo sfiorava la rena.
And a footstep brushed the sand.
Entrava ella fragrante,
She entered fragrant,
Mi cadea fra la braccia.
She fell into my arms.
O dolci baci, o languide carezze,
Oh, sweet kisses, oh, languid caresses,
Mentr'io fremente le belle forme disciogliea dai veli!
As I tremblingly freed her beautiful form from her veils!
Svanì per sempre il sogno mio d'amore.
My dream of love has vanished forever.
L'ora è fuggita, e muoio disperato!
The hour has fled, and I die in despair!
E muoio disperato! E non ho amato mai tanto la vita!
And I die in despair! And I have never loved life so much!
Tanto la vita!
So much life!
End
End
