“Inumano fratel” / “Stille Amare” (Tolomeo) lyrics
“Inumano fratel” (Tolomeo)
Inumano fratel, barbara madre,
ingiusto Araspe, dispietata Elisa,
Numi, o furie del Ciel, Cielo nemico,
implacabil destin, tiranna sorte,
tutti, tutti v’invito
a gustare il piacer della mia morte.
Ma tu, consorte amata,
non pianger, no, mentre che lieto spiro;
basta che ad incontrar l’anima mia,
quando uscirà dal sen, mandi un sospiro.
Inhuman brother, barbarous mother,
unjust Araspe, pitiless Elisa.
gods, or furies of heaven, hostile heaven,
implacable destiny, tyrannical fate,
all of you, I invite all of you
to taste the pleasure of my death.
But you, my cherished lover,
don’t cry, no, for I am happy;
let it be enough that when you encounter my soul
leaving my breast, you send a sigh.
“Stille amare” (Tolomeo)
Stille amare, già vi sento
tutte in seno, la morte chiamar.
Già vi sento smorzare il tormento,
già vi sento tornarmi a bear.
Bitter drops, I already feel you
in my chest beckoning death.
I already feel you extinguishing my torment,
I already feel you returning me to happiness.
