Italian text
Mi lagnerò tacendo
della mia sorte amara, ah!
Ma ch'io non t'ami,
o cara, non lo sperar da me.
Crudel, farmi penar così, crudel!
Ah! Mi lagnerò tacendo
della mia sorte amara,
Ma ch'io non t'ami,
o cara, non lo sperar da me, crudel!

English translation
by Mick Swithinbank

I will bewail in silence
my bitter fate, ah!
But that I should cease to love you,
my heart's desire, is too much to expect.
Cruel you are to make me suffer so.
Ah! I will bewail in silence
my bitter fate,
but that I should cease to love you,
my heart's desire, is too much to expect - cruel though you are.
