E lucevan le stelle (And the stars were shining) ed olezzava la terra (and the earth smelled sweet) stridea l’uscio dell’orto (the garden gate scraped) e un passo sfiorava la rena (and a step brushed the sand) Entrava ella fragrante (She came in, fragrant) mi cadea fra la braccia (and 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! (while I, trembling, released her lovely features from their veils!) Svanì per sempre il sogno mio d’amore (My dream of love has vanished forever) L’ora è fuggita, e muoio disperato! (The moment is gone, and I die in despair!) e muoio disperato! E non ho amato mai tanto la vita! (I die in despair! And I never have loved life so much!) tanto la vita! (life so much!)
