Una furtiva lagrima negli occhi suoi spuntò. Quelle festose giovani invidiar sembrò. Che più cercando io vo? Che più cercando io vo? . M'ama; sì, m'ama; lo vedo, lo vedo. . Un solo istante i palpiti del suo bel cor sentir! I miei sospir confondere per poco a' suoi sospir! I palpiti, i palpiti sentir! Confondere i miei co' suoi sospir! . Cielo! si può morir, di più non chiedo, non chiedo. Ah! Cielo! si può, si può morir, di più non chiedo, non chiedo.

Una furtiva lagrima
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
| ||||||||
.
Una furtiva lagrima (A furtive tear) is the romanza taken from Act II, Scene VIII of the Italian opera, L'elisir d'amore by Gaetano Donizetti. It is sung by Nemorino (tenor) when he finds that the love potion he bought to win his dream lady’s heart, Adina, works.
.
Nemorino is in love with Adina, but she isn't interested in a relationship with an innocent, rustic man. To win her heart, Nemorino buys a “love potion” with all the money he has in his pocket. The “love potion” is actually a cheap red wine sold by a traveling con man. But when he sees Adina weeping, he knows that she has fallen in love with him and the “Elixir” works.

| Una furtiva lagrima negli occhi suoi spuntò: Quelle festose giovani invidiar sembrò. Che più cercando io vo? Che più cercando io vo? M'ama! Sì, m'ama, lo vedo. Lo vedo. Un solo instante i palpiti del suo bel cor sentir! I miei sospir, confondere per poco a' suoi sospir! I palpiti, i palpiti sentir, confondere i miei coi suoi sospir... Cielo! Si può morir! Di più non chiedo, non chiedo. Ah, cielo! Si può! Si, può morir! Di più non chiedo, non chiedo. Si può morire! Si può morir d'amor. | One furtive secret tear from her eyes did spring: as if those youths who can be playful it ( or she ) seemed to be envious of. What more searching do I want? What more searching do I want? She loves me! Yes, she loves me, I see it. I see it. Just for an instant the beats of her beautiful heart if I could feel! My sighs if they were mingled for a while with her sighs! The beats, the beats of her heart if I could feel, to fuse my sighs with hers... Heavens! Yes, I could die! I ask for nothing more, nothing. Oh, heavens! Yes, I could, I could die! I ask for nothing more, nothing. Yes, I could die! Yes, I could die of love. |
