Che soave zeffiretto...
Questa sera spirerà...
Zeffiretto...
Questa sera spirerà...
Questa sera spirerà...

Sotto i pini del boschetto.
Sotto i pini...
Sotto i pini del boschetto.
Sotto i pini...del boschetto...

Ei già il resto capirà.
Certo, certo il capirà.
Certo, certo il capirà.

Canzonetta sull'aria...
Che soave zeffiretto...
Questa sera spirerà....

On the air…

That sweet little Zephyr

This evening will be filled with joy

Little Zephyr

This evening will be filled with joy...

Beneath the pines of the grove…

Beneath the pines…

Beneath the pines of the grove...

And the rest he'll understand

Of course, of course, he'll understand it...

Little song on the air…

That sweet little Zephyr

This evening will be filled with joy

Beneath the pines of the grove.

And the rest he'll understand

Of course, of course, he'll understand it...

A Little Song on the Breeze

On the breeze

What a gentle little zephir

A little zephir

This evening will sigh

Under the pines in the little grove.

Under the pines…

Under the pines in the little grove

Under…the pines…in the little grove

And the rest he’ll understand

Certainly, certainly he’ll understand.

"Fra gli amplessi" from Così Fan Tutte by Mozart - starring Persson, Lehtipuu at Salzburg

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rC-TGExbH-8&fbclid=IwAR0k9Eg8CbuWM7A_KCdLJ5j-VaYdRTIzR531UOPcaXBa-4AdxY0AvfaQvC8

Fra gli amplessi in pochi istanti
Giungerò del fido sposo;
Sconosciuta a lui davanti
In quest'abito verrò.
Oh, che gioia il suo bel core
Proverà nel ravvisarmi!

Very soon now I'll be enfolded
In the embraces of my true love;
Unrecognised in these garments
I will come before him.
Oh, what joy will fill his heart
When he sees me again!

Maria Callas "One Fine Day" from Puccini's Madame Butterfly

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AR0SlCTj1Bo&fbclid=IwAR3tSY7uLIEbQ3D-uvq93PCSkvKFmQpmcKmrSibGfh9RZOVbRtNUaNShXmQ

Weeping? And why? And why?
Ah, 'tis faith you are lacking
Hear me
One fine day we'll notice
A thread of smoke arising on the sea
In the far horizon
And then the ship appearing
Then the trim white vessel
Glides into the harbour
Thunders forth her cannon
See you?
Now he is coming
I do not go to meet him
Not I
I stay upon the brow of the hillock
And wait there
And wait for a long time
But never weary of the long waiting
From out the crowded city
There is coming a man
A little speck in the distance
Climbing the hillock
Can you guess who it is?
And when he's reached the summit
Can you guess what he'll say?
He will call, "Butterfly" from the distance
I, without answering
Hold myself quietly concealed
A bit to tease him and a bit
So as not to die at our first meeting
And then, a little troubled
He will call, he will call "Dear baby wife of mine,
Dear little orange blossom"
The names he used to call me when he came here
This will all come to pass as I tell you
Banish your idle fears
For he will return
Return

Mozart's "Zaide" sung by Ruhe Sanft

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=spS4v6guHHc

Ruhe sanft, mein holdes Leben, schlafe, bis dein Glück erwacht; da, mein Bild will ich dir geben, schau, wie freundlich es dir lacht. Ihr süßen Träume, wiegt ihn ein, und lasset seinem Wunsch am Ende die wollustreichen Gegenstände zu reifer Wirklichkeit gedeihn.

Rest gently, my dearest love, sleep until your happiness awakes; there, I will give you my portrait, see how kindly it smiles at you. Sweet dreams, rock him to sleep, and in the end let his wishes of a joyful conclusion prosper as a ripening reality.

Così fan tutte: 'Soave sia il vento' – Mozart

https://vimeo.com/12088955

Nicolas Rivenq as Don Alfonso, Miah Persson as Fiordiligi and Anke Vondung as Dorabella sing the trio 'Soave sia il vento' in the 2006 Glyndebourne Festival Production of Mozart's Così fan tutte.

Italian:
Soave sia il vento,
Tranquilla sia l’onda,
Ed ogni elemento
Benigno risponda
Ai nostri {vostri) desir.

English translation:
Gentle is the wind,
Calm is the wave,
And every one of the elements
Answer warmly
To our (your) desire.
