Sie ist allein, sie fühlt sich einsam in ihrem unermesslichen Imperium, wie eine verlassene Insel im Meer. Ognuno in lei vede e desidera la regina; Die Königin ist es, die alle in ihr sehen und begehren: nessuno ha amato la donna. Keiner liebt die Frau allein. Semiramide. Racconto babilonese (Anton Giulio Barrili, 1873) Semiramide. Racconto babilonese (Anton Giulio Barrili, 1873) If you knew Semiramis, you would call her unfortunate, not guilty. Si tu connaissais Sémiramis, tu la jugerais malheureuse, et non point coupable. No one loves the poor queen, no one! Personne n’aima la pauvre reine, personne! She is alone, she feels alone in her vast empire, Elle est seule, elle se sent seule dans son vaste empire, like a desert island in the sea. comme une île déserte au milieu de la mer. It is the queen that everyone sees in her and desires; Chacun voit et désire en elle la reine ; no one loved the woman. Mais jamais la femme ne fut aimée. Semiramide.
