Piangerò la sorte mia (Handel) Yvonne Kenny

Piangerò la sorte mia from the opera Giulio Cesare in Egitto, HWV 17
by George Frideric Handel (1685-1759)

Yvonne Kenny, soprano
Australian Brandenburg Orchestra
Paul Dyer, conductor

Piangerò la sorte mia,
Sì crudele e tanto ria,
Finché vita in petto avrò.

Ma poi morta d’ogn’intorno
Il tiranno e notte e giorno
Fatta spettro agiterò.

TRANSLATION:
I shall bewail my fate,
So cruel, so wicked,
While I have life in my breast.

And, after death, both night and day,
Like an unquiet phantom,
I shall hover around the tyrant!
