Libretto (Italian)
ARIA
Lascia ch’io pianga
mia cruda sorte,
e che sospiri
la libertà.
Il duolo infranga
queste ritorte,
de’ miei martiri
sol per pietà.
Translation (English)
ARIA
Let me weep over
my cruel fate,
and let me sigh for
liberty.
May sorrow shatter
these chains,
for my torments
just out of pity.
