Una Vergine, Un Angiol Di Dio
Gaetano Donizetti
A Virgin, An Angel of God
A virgin, an angel of God
By the altar prayed with me
A hope, a terror, a desire
Descended to the soul and filled it with joy
Ah! My father, my father
How beautiful she was!
How beautiful she was!
Ah! My father, ah! My father
The peace of my heart has been taken from me
Ah, I turn to the divine
My mind, but that
To the present gaze
Is always
Always present
Always, always
Always present
Always, always
