Save the closing tomb's confine! Aria: "Non so piu cosa son" from (Translation) "Le Nozse di Figaro" Aria from "The Marriage of Figaro" Non so piO cosa son' cosa faccio. I don't know what I'm saying or doing. Or di foco, ora sono di ghiaccio, First I'm freezing and then I'm glowing, Ogni donna cangiar di colore, Ev'ry woman can set me aflutter, Ogni donna mi fa palpitar. Ev'ry woman can set me afire! Solo ai nomi d'amor, di diletto, If the sweet name of love be but spoken. Mi si turba, mi s'altera il petto, Ah ! my heart-beats grow troubled and broken; E a parlare mi sforza d'amore And loving phrases I'm driven to utter, Un desio ch'io non posso spiegar. By the impulse of some unknown desire. Parlo d'amor vegliando, Whether asleep or waking, Parlo d'amor sognando, Ever of love I'm talking. A I'acqua, a I'ombra, ai monti, To forests, lakes and mountains. Ai fiori, a I'erbe, ai fonti, To flow'rs and grass and fountains. A I'eco, a I'aria, ai venti, The echoes where I tarry, Che il suon de' vani accenti And winds and breezes carry Portano via con se. My empty words away. E se non ho chi m'oda, If no one else be near me, Parlo d'amor con me. Yet I myself can hear me, When loving words I say. (Translation) Die Mutter Erde Mother Earth Des Lebens Tag ist schwer und schwiil, The day of life is dark and hot, Des Todes Atem leicht und kiihl, The breath of death is light and cool, Er wehet freundlich uns hinab, Friendly it wafts us down below. Wie welkes Laub in's stille Grab. As withered leaves into our graves. Es scheint der Mond, es fiillt der Tau The moonlight shines, the dewdrops fall, Auf's Grab, wie auf die Blumenau, Upon the graves and meadows, too, Doch fallt der Freunde Tr.-in' hinein, But if a friendly tear flows down, Erhellt von sanfter Hoffnung Schein. A ray of hope lights up the gloom. Uns sammelt alle, Klein und Gross, We all are gathered, large and small. Die Mutter Erd' in ihren Schoss, By Mother Earth into her lap, O sab'n wir ihr in's Angesicht, Oh, could we only see her face. Wir scheuten ihren Busen nicht. We should not fear to rest with her. —Stolherg. (Translation) Auflosung Dissolution Verbirg dich, Sonne, Hide yourself. Sun, Denn die Gluten der Wonne For the fires of joy Versengen mein Gebein. Are scorching my bones. Verstummet, Tone, Be silent, sounds, Friihlingsschone, Beauty of springtime. Fliichte dich und lass mich allein. Disappear, leave me alone. Quellen doch aus alien Falten Still well from out the folds Meiner Seele liebliche Gewalten, Of my soul, precious powers. Die mich umschlingen, Which embrace me. Himmlisch singen. Singing of Heaven. Geh' unter. Welt, und store Perish, World, and never Nimmer die sussen atberischen Ch6re. Disturb the sweet unearthly chorus. —Mayrhofer. ! : (Translation) Lied der Braut, I The Bride's Song, I Mutter, Mutter, glaube nicht, Mother, mother, do not think. Weil ich ihn lieb' allsosehr, Though I love him more and more. Dass nun Liebe mir gebricht, That my love for thee will sink. Dich zu lieben wie vorher. Will be weaker than before.
