Lyrics

Una furtiva lagrima
Negli occhi suoi spunto:
Quelle festosee giovani
Invidiar sembro
Che piu cercando io vo?
M'ama, lo vedo
Un solo instante I palpiti
Del suo bel cor sentir!
I miei sospir, confondere
Per poco a' suoi sospir!
Cielo, si puo morir!
Di piu non chiedo

English translation

One tear that falls so furtively
From her sweet eyes has just sprung
As if she envied all the youths
Who laughingly passed her right by
What could I want more than this?
She loves me! I see it
One moment just to hear her heart
Beating so close next to mine
To hear my sighs like they were hers
Her sighings as if they were mine!
Heavens, please take me now:
All that I wanted is mine now!
