Vesti La Giubba
Ruggero Leoncavallo
Put on the Costume
Put on the costume
And powder your face
People pay, and they want to laugh here
And if Harlequin steals Colombina from you
Laugh, Clown, and everyone will applaud!
Turn the agony and tears
Into a grimace, the sobs and pain, Ah!
Laugh, Clown
At your broken heart!
Laugh at the sorrow that poisons your heart!
