Povero cor tu palpiti
Isabella Colbran

Povero cor, tu palpiti,
ne a torto in questo di;
tu palpiti così, 
povero core.

Si tratta o Dio, di perdere
per sempre il caro ben,
che di sua mano in sen
m’inpresse amore


English

Poor heart, you flutter,
and not in error; on this day;
you flutter so much, 
poor heart.

The reason is, oh God! you have lost
forever your dear one,
whose image was engraved upon you
by the hand of Cupid himself.
