O Cessate Di Piagarmi

Cease to torment me
Or let me die!
Or let me die!

Ungrateful, pitiless eyes
Colder and more deaf than ice and marble
Cold and deaf to my suffering
Cold and deaf to my suffering

Cease to torment me
Or let me die!

More than one snake, more than one asp
Cruel and deaf to my sighs
Cruel and deaf to my sighs

Proud, blind, and fierce eyes
Proud, blind, and fierce eyes
You could heal me
And you delight in my languishing
And you delight in my languishing

Cease to torment me
Or let me die!
