Speak to me, my love!
Language:
English
Speak to me, my love! Tell me in words what you sang.
The night is dark. The stars are lost in clouds.
The wind is sighing through the leaves.
I will let loose my hair.
My blue cloak will cling round me like the night.
I will clasp your head to my bosom;
And there in the sweet loneliness murmur on your heart.
I will shut my eyes and listen.
I will not look in your face.
When your words are ended, we will sit still and silent.
Only the trees will whisper in the dark.
[The night will pale.] The day will dawn.
We shall look at each other's eyes and go on our different paths.
Speak to me, my love! Tell me in words what you sang.

Parlami amor mio
Language:
Italian
Parlami amor mio, dimmi a parole quello che cantasti.
La notte è buia... Le stelle si smarriscono ne le nubi...
Il vento soffia tra le fronde.
Scioglierò i miei capelli...
Il mio mantello azzurro mi circonderà come la notte...
Stringerò la tua testa sul mio seno
E ne la dolce solitudine sospirerò sul tuo cuore!
Socchiuderò i miei occhi e ascolterò.
Quando le tue parole cesseranno
Staremo fermi e in silenzio...
La notte impallidirà.
Spunterà l'aurora...
Ci guarderemo negli occhi
E andremo pel nostro diverso cammin
Parlami amor mio...
Dimmi a parole quelo che cantasti...
