How much it hurts me, Susanna
that this young man has some of the Count's
Extravagances heard; you don't know!
But for what reason
did he not come to me himself?
Where is the little song?
Here it is: exactly
let's make him sing it to us
quiet, people are coming
Come on, come on, Mr. Officer
don't call me
With such a fatal name! it reminds me
that I should abandon
such a good godmother
And so beautiful!
yes, of course
yes, of course, hypocrite!
Come on, quickly, the song
that you gave me this morning
sing it to Madam
Who is the author?
Look: he has two red arms
blushing on his face
Take my guitar
and accompany him
I am so trembling
but if Madam wants
She wants it, yes, she wants it, no need for words
You, who know what love is
women see if I have it in my heart
Women see if I have it in my heart
What I feel, I will tell you
it's new to me, I don't understand it
I feel an affection full of desire
which is now delight, now torment
I freeze, and then I feel my soul burning
and in a moment I freeze again
I seek a good outside of me
I don't know who holds it, I don't know what it is
I sigh and moan without wanting to
I palpitate and tremble without knowing
I find no peace night or day
but I still like to languish like this
You, who know what love is
women see if I have it in my heart
women see if I have it in my heart
women see if I have it in my heart
