Casta diva, che inargenti Casta diva, who silver
Queste sacre antiche piante, These sacred ancient plants,
Tempra tu de' cori ardenti, Temper you of the ardent choirs,
Tempra ancora lo zelo audace. Still temper the bold zeal.
Spargi in terra quella pace Spread that peace on the earth
Che regnar tu fai nel ciel. What reign you do in heaven.
Al noi volgi il bel sembiante, To us you turn your beautiful face,
Senza nube e senza vel! Without cloud and without vel!
Fine al rito.End of the rite.
E il sacro bosco And the sacred wood
Sia disgombro dai profani. Be disgusted by the profane.
Quando il nume irato e fosco When the angry and gloomy god
Chiegga il sangue dei romani, Ask for the blood of the Romans,
Dal druidico delubro From the druidic delubro
La mia voce tuonerà. My voice will thunder.
Tuoni;Thunder;
e un sol del popolo empio and one of the wicked people
Non isfugga al giusto scempio; Do not escape the just havoc;
E primier da noi percosso And primaer struck by us
Il proconsole cadrà. The proconsul will fall.
Sì, cadrà… punirlo io posso. Yes, he will fall… punish him I can.
(Ma punirlo il cor non sa.) (But the heart does not know to punish him.)
(Ah! bello a me ritorna (Ah! Nice to me comes back
Del fido amor primiero, Of the faithful primal love,
E contro il mondo intiero And against the whole world
Difesa a te sarò. Defense to you I will be.
Ah!Ah!
bello a me ritorna nice to me comes back
Del raggio tuo sereno Of your serene ray
E vita nel tuo seno And life in your womb
E patria e cielo avrò.) And homeland and heaven I will have.)
Sei lento, sì, sei lento, You are slow, yes, you are slow,
O giorno di vendetta, O day of vengeance,
Ma irato il dio t’affretta But the god hastens you in anger
Che il Tebro condannò! What the Tebro condemned!
