Lyrics
Odi di un uom che muore
Odi l’estremo suon:
Questo appassito fiore
Ti lascio, Elvira, in don
Quanto prezioso ei sia
Tu lo conosci appien;
Dal dì che fosti mia
A te l’involai dal sen
Simbolo allor d’affetto
Or pegno di dolor;
Torni a posarti in petto
Questo appassito fior
E avrai nel cor scolpito
Se duro il cor non è
Come ti fu rapito
Come ritorna a te
Lyrics translation
Hate of a dying uom
Hate the extreme sound:
This withered flower
I leave you, Elvira, in don
How valuable ei is
You know him.;
Since you were mine
To you I rolled it from the sen
Symbol of affection
Or pledge of pain;
Go back to your chest
This withered flower
And thou shalt have in the heart carved
If hard the cor is not
How he was taken from you
How it comes back to you
