Verdi: Rigoletto / Act 3 - La donna e mobile (original)

La donna è mobile
Qual piuma al vento
Muta d’accento
E di pensiero
Sempre un amabile
Leggiadro viso
In pianto o in riso
È menzognero
La donna è mobil
Qual piuma al vento
Muta d’accento
E di pensier
E di pensier
E di pensier
E' sempre misero
Chi a lei s’affida
Chi le confida
Mal cauto il core
Pur mai non sentesi
Felice appieno
Chi su quel seno
Non liba amore
La donna è mobil
Qual piuma al vento
Muta d’accento
E di pensier
E di pensier
E di pensier

(translation)

The woman is mobile
As a feather in the wind
Change of accent
And of thought
Always a lovable
Graceful face
In tears or laughter
It is a liar
The woman is mobil
As a feather in the wind
Change of accent
And to think
And to think
And to think
It is always miserable
Who trusts her
Who confides them
Badly cautious the core
Yet I never heard
Happy fully
Who on that breast
Love does not free
The woman is mobil
As a feather in the wind
Change of accent
And to think
And to think
And to think
