| Casta Diva, che inargenti |
| queste sacre antiche piante, |
| a noi volgi il bel sembiante |
| senza nube e senza vel… |
| Tempra, o Diva, |
| tempra tu de' cori ardenti |
| tempra ancora lo zelo audace, |
| spargi in terra quella pace |
| che regnar tu fai nel ciel… |
| Fine al rito: e il sacro bosco |
| Sia disgombro dai profani. |
| Quando il Nume irato e fosco, |
| Chiegga il sangue dei Romani, |
| Dal Druidico delubro |
| La mia voce tuoner?. |
| Cadr?; |
| punirlo io posso. |
| (Ma, punirlo, il cor non sa. |
| Ah! |
| bello a me ritorna |
| Del fido amor primiero; |
| E contro il mondo intiero… |
| Difesa a te sar?. |
| Ah! |
| bello a me ritorna |
| Del raggio tuo sereno; |
| E vita nel tuo seno, |
| E patria e cielo avr?. |
| Ah, riedi ancora qual eri allora, |
| Quando il cor ti diedi allora, |
| Ah, riedi a me.) |
| (translation) |
| Casta Diva, who silver |
| these sacred ancient plants, |
| turn your beautiful face to us |
| without cloud and without veil ... |
| Temper, o Diva, |
| you temper the ardent choirs |
| still temper the daring zeal, |
| spread that peace on the earth |
| what reign you do in heaven ... |
| End of the rite: and the sacred wood |
| Be disgusted by the profane. |
| When the wrathful and gloomy God, |
| Ask for the blood of the Romans, |
| From the Druidico delubro |
| My voice will thunder. |
| Cadr ?; |
| I can punish him. |
| (But, punish him, the heart does not know. |
| Ah! |
| nice to me comes back |
| Of the faithful primal love; |
| And against the whole world ... |
| Defense to you will be. |
| Ah! |
| nice to me comes back |
| Of your serene ray; |
| And life in your womb, |
| And homeland and heaven will he have? |
| Ah, you still have what you were then, |
| When the heart I gave you then, |
| Ah, take it back to me.) |
