Original text and translations
Italian text Lascia ch’io pianga la dura sorte
E che sospiri la libertà!
E che sospiri, e che sospiri la libertà!
Lascia ch’io pianga la dura sorte
E che sospiri la libertà!
Il duol infranga, queste ritorte
de’ miei martiri sol per pietà si,
de’ miei martiri sol per pietà.
dutch text
Ik laat tranen vallen over het harde lot,
en slaak een zucht naar de vrijheid!
En slaak een zucht, een zucht naar de vrijheid!
Ik laat tranen vallen over het harde lot,
en slaak een zucht naar de vrijheid!
In smart breken, deze banden,
die mij knellen, uit genade alleen, ja,
die mij knellen, uit genade alleen.
