Lyrics of E lucevan stelle (Tosca) - Andrea Bocelli

E lucevan stelle (Tosca) (original)

E lucean le stelle…
e olezzava la terra…
stridea l’uscio dell’orto…
e un passo sfiorava la rena.
Entrava ella, fragrante,
mi cadea tra le braccia.
Oh dolci baci, o languide carezze,
mentr’io fremente
le belle forme disciogliea dai veli!
Svan?
per sempre
il sogno mio d’amore…
L’ora?
fuggita,
e muoio disperato…
e muoio disperato…
E non ho amato mai tanto la vita!
Tanto la vita…
Tanto la vita…
And the stars were shining the earth
wa sfragrant the garden gate
creaked and a footstep brushed the sand.
She entered, fragrant,
and fell into my arms …
Oh sweet kisses, oh languid caresses
and I, quivering,
unveiled those beautiful shapes!!!
Disappeared forever my love’s dream
The hour is gone…
And I, desperately, die!
And I’ve never loved so much my life

(translation)

And the stars shone ...
and smelled the earth ...
the door of the garden screeches ...
and one step touched the sand.
She entered, fragrant,
it fell into her arms.
Oh sweet kisses, or languid caresses,
while I quiver
the beautiful forms dissolve from the veils!
Svan?
forever
my dream of love ...
Time?
fled,
and I die in despair ...
and I die in despair ...
And I've never loved life so much!
So much life ...
So much life ...
And the stars were shining the earth
wa sfagrant the garden gate
creaked and a footstep brushed the sand.
She entered, fragrant,
and she fell into my arms ...
Oh sweet kisses, oh languid caresses
and I, quivering,
unveiled those beautiful shapes !!!
Disappeared forever my love's dream
The hour is gone…
And I, desperately, die!
And I’ve never loved so much my life
