Italian text
Deh, come invan sospiro,
Deh, come invan vi miro,
Poiché, crudel, voi fate ogni un gioire
Et a me sol morire!
Infelice mia sorte,
Che la vita per me divenga morte.
German translation
Translation by Kurt Pages
Ach, wie vergebens seufze ich,
Ach, wie vergebens schaue ich Euch an,
Weshalb, Grausame, schenkt Ihr allen eine Freude
Und mir allein zu sterben!
Unglücklich ist mein Schicksal,
Das das Leben für mich zum Tod werden lässt.
English translation
Ah! How I sigh in vain,
Ah! How I look at you in vain,
Since, cruel one, you give joy to all
And to me only death!
Unhappy my fate,
That life for me has become death.
