Sparge la morte al mio Signor nel viso
Sparge la morte al mio Signor nel viso
Tra squallidi pallori
Tra squallidi pallori

Geme, sospira, e più ferir non osa.

Ei, che temer la mira,
Ei, che temer la mira,
Inchina il capo, asconde il viso, e spira.
Inchina il capo, asconde il viso, e spira.}}

Death spreads over my Lord's face,
Death spreads over my Lord's face,
Over its bleak pallor,
Over its bleak pallor,
Line 46: Line 40:
He groans, sighs, and does not dare to wound him more.
He groans, sighs, and does not dare to wound him more.
But he who sees him shrinking back
But he who sees him shrinking back
Bows his head, hides his face, and dies.
Bows his head, hides his face, and dies.}}

Sparge la morte al mio Signor nel viso
Tra squallidi pallori
Pietosissimi horrori,
Poi lo rimira e ne divien pietosa;
Geme, sospira, e più ferir non osa.
Ei, che temer la mira,
Inchina il capo, asconde il viso, e spira.

English.png English translation

Death spreads over my Lord's face,
Over its bleak pallor,
The most heartrending shade;
Then he looks at him and is moved to pity;
He groans, sighs, and does not dare to wound him more.
But he who sees him shrinking back
Bows his head, hides his face, and dies.
