Intorno All'idol Mio
Cecilia Bartoli
Around My Idol
Around my idol breathe, just breathe,
Breezes, gentle and pleasing,
And on the chosen cheeks
Kiss him for me,
Kind, kind little breezes!
To my beloved, who rests
On the wings of quiet,
Grateful, grateful dreams attend
And my enclosed ardor
Reveal to him for me,
O shades, o shades of love!
