Voglio amare insin ch’io moro (Handel) Rosemary Joshua

Voglio amare insin ch'io moro from the opera Partenope, HWV 27
by George Frideric Handel (1685-1759)

Rosemary Joshua, soprano
Early Opera Company
Christian Curnyn, conductor

Voglio amare insin ch’io moro
l’idol mio per mio ristoro
e perché so che ti spiace.

Stringer poi lo voglio al petto
per vendetta e per dispetto
del tuo core e per mia pace.

’Till Death divides me from my Love,
My dearest Blessing he shall prove,
To torture thee the more.

I’ll clasp him to my panting Breast,
With Joy to rob thee of thy Rest,
And all my Peace restore.
