Rigoletto, Act III, Scene 2: "La donna è mobile" (Duca)(original) |
Italian Text |
La donna? |
mobile |
Qual piuma al vento, |
Muta d’accento — e di pensiero. |
Sempre un amabile, |
Leggiadro viso, |
In pianto o in riso, —? |
menzognero. |
? |
sempre misero |
Chi a lei s’affida, |
Chi le confida — mal cauto il cuore! |
Pur mai non sentesi |
Felice appieno |
Chi su quel seno — non liba amore! |
English Translation of «La donna e mobile» |
Woman is flighty |
Like a feather in the wind, |
She changes her voice — and her mind. |
Always sweet, |
Pretty face, |
In tears or in laughter, — she is always lying. |
Always miserable |
Is he who trusts her, |
He who confides in her — his unwary heart! |
Yet one never feels |
Fully happy |
Who on that bosom — does not drink love! |
(translation) |
Italian Text |
The woman? |
mobile |
As a feather in the wind, |
Change of accent - and of thought. |
Always a lovable, |
Graceful face, |
In tears or in laughter, -? |
liar. |
? |
always miserable |
Who trusts her, |
Who confides in her - badly cautious her heart! |
Yet I never heard |
Happy fully |
Who on that breast - does not release love! |
English Translation of «Woman is mobile» |
Woman is flighty |
Like a feather in the wind, |
She changes her voice - and her mind di lei. |
Always sweet, |
Pretty face, |
In tears or in laughter, - she is always lying. |
Always miserable |
Is he who trusts her, |
He who confides in her di lei - his di lei unwary heart di lei! |
Yet one never feels |
Fully happy |
Who on that bosom - lei does not drink love! |
