Bacia per me la mano del caro idolo mio from the opera Riccardo primo, re d'Inghilterra, HWV 23
by George Frideric Handel (1685-1759)
Sandrine Piau, soprano
Les Talens Lyriques
Christophe Rousset, conductor
Bacia per me la mano del caro idolo mio,
digli, che per lui moro e son contenta. . .
Dirai, ch’è la mia pena il non vederlo, o Dio!
ma che la pena sua più mi tormenta.
TRANSLATION (by Avril Bardoni):
Kiss for me the hand of my beloved,
tell him I die for him and am content . . .
Tell him I grieve because I cannot see him,
but that I grieve more for his pain.
