Mentita
Duet originally for two Altos and basso continuno.
Original Language: Italian
S'io vi giuro mia vita
Ch'io v'amo
Voi mi date con parole spietate
Subito una mentita.
Io che sensi ho vivace
Corro raffronto
À scaricar coi baci.
Poet:
Loredano
English
Denial
If I swear, my life,
that I love you,
with spiteful words you respond
immediately with a denial.
I, whose feelings are sensitive,
hurry to relieve the insult
with kisses.
