Lyrics

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.)
Written by: Felice Romani, Vincenzo Bellini
