Vivi tiranno!
Io t’ho scampato
Svenami, ingrato,
sfoga il furor.
Volli salvarti
sol per mostrarti
ch’ho di mia sorte
più grande cor.
Vivi tiranno... etc.
Live, Tyrant!
I have saved you.
Now kill me, ingrate,
unleash your rage!
I wished to save you
only to show you
That my heart is
greater than my fate.
Live, Tyrant... etc.
