Verdi: La traviata - Libiamo ne'lieti calici (original)

Libiamo, libiamo ne’lieti calici
Che la belleza infiora.
E la fuggevol ora s’inebrii
A volutt.
Libiamo ne’dolci fremiti
Che suscita l’amore,
Poich quell’ochio al core omnipotente va.
Libiamo, amore fra I calici
Pi caldi baci avr.
Tra voi tra voi sapr dividere
Il tempo mio giocondo;
Tutto follia nel mondo ci
Che non piacer.
Godiam, fugace e rapido
E’il gaudio dell amore,
E’un flor che nasce e muore,
Ne pi si pu goder.
Godiam c’invita un fervido
Accento lusighier.
(Godiamo, la tazza e il cantico
La notte abbella e il riso;
In questo paradiso ne sopra il nuovo d.)
La vita nel tripudio
Quando non s’ami ancora.
Nol dite a chi l’ignora,
E' il mio destin cos…
Godiamo, la tazza e il cantico
La notte abbella e il riso;
In questo paradiso ne sopra il nuovo d.
Let us drink from the goblets of joy
Adorned with beauty,
And the fleeting hour shall be adorned
With pleasure.
Let us drink to the secret raptures
Which love excites,
For this eye reigns supreme in my heart…
Let us drink, for with wine
Love will enjoy yet more passionate kisses.
With you I can spend
The time with delight.
In life everything is folly
Which does not bring pleasure.
Let us be happy, fleeting and rapid
Is the delight of love;
It is a flower which blooms and dies,
Which can no longer be enjoyed.
Let us be happy, fervent
And enticing words summon us.
(Be happy… wine and song
And laughter beautify the night;
Let the new day find us in this paradise.)
Life is nothing but pleasure,
As long as one is not in love.
Don’t say that to one who is ignorant.
That is my fate…
Be happy… wine and song
And laughter beautify the night;
Let the new day find us in this paradise.

Verdi: La traviata - Libiamo ne'lieti calici (translation)

We liberate, we liberate in the happy chalices
May beauty bloom.
And the fleeting hour was inebriated
A volutt.
We free ourselves from the sweet thrills
That arouses love,
Since that eye goes to the omnipotent core.
Let us free, love between the chalices
Warmer kisses will have.
Between you I will know how to divide
My joyful time;
All madness in the world there
That I will not like it.
Let's enjoy, fleeting and quick
It is the joy of love,
It is a flor that is born and dies,
More can be enjoyed.
Let's enjoy, a fervent one invites us
Lusighier accent.
(Let's enjoy, the cup and the song
The night embellishes and laughter;
In this paradise ne above the new d.)
Life in the blaze
When you don't love yourself yet.
Nol say to those who ignore it,
It is my destiny so ...
Let's enjoy, the cup and the song
The night embellishes and laughter;
In this paradise ne over the new d.
Let us drink from the goblets of joy
Adorned with beauty,
And the fleeting hour shall be adorned
With pleasure.
Let us drink to the secret raptures
Which love excites,
For this eye reigns supreme in my heart…
Let us drink, for with wine
Love will enjoy yet more passionate kisses.
With you I can spend
The time with delight.
In life everything is folly
Which does not bring pleasure.
Let us be happy, fleeting and rapid
Is the delight of love;
It is a flower which blooms and dies,
Which can no longer be enjoyed.
Let us be happy, fervent
And enticing words summon us.
(Be happy… wine and song
And laughter beautify the night;
Let the new day find us in this paradise.)
Life is nothing but pleasure,
As long as one is not in love.
Don't say that to one who is ignorant.
That is my fate ...
Be happy… wine and song
And laughter beautify the night;
Let the new day find us in this paradise.
