Recondita Armonia | Plácido Domingo
The supreme tranquility of Plácido, when Plácido Domingo sings Recondita armonia. Romanticism never dies in us. . .
But our Floria is Sophia.
| English What subtle harmony of different beauties! Floria, my passionate lover is a brunette And you, unknown beauty, Are framed by fair hair You have blue eyes Tosca has dark eyes The mysterious art Mixes the different beauties together: But while I paint her I only think Ah! I only think of you Tosca, of you! | Original (Italian) Recondita armonia di bellezze diverse! Ȉ bruna Floria, l’ardente amante mia, E te, beltade ignota cinta di chiome bionde! Tu azzurro hai l’occhio Tosca ha l’occhio nero! L’arte nel suo mistero Le diverse bellezze insiem confonde: Ma nel ritrar costei Il mio solo pensiero, Ah! il mio sol pensier sei tu! Tosca, sei tu! |
