Opera, Anyone?

Wow, now this is really going out on a limb, but I'm posting a short opera piece. It's called Nessun Dorma, and the version below is sung by Luciano Pavarotti. The lyric is powerful enough; the music makes it mighty. So, for all you opera fans, ENJOY! :)




Nessun Dorma - Luciano Pavarotti & Andrea Bocelli

Italian Text:
Nessun dorma! Nessun dorma!
Tu pure, o, Principessa,nella tua fredda stanza,
guardi le stelleche tremano d'amoree di speranza.
Ma il mio mistero è chiuso in me,il nome mio nessun saprà!
No, no, sulla tua bocca lo diròquando la luce splenderà!
Ed il mio bacio scioglierà il silenzioche ti fa mia!
(Il nome suo nessun saprà!...e noi dovrem, ahime, morir!)
Dilegua, o notte!Tramontate, stelle!Tramontate, stelle!
All'alba vincerò!vincerò, vincerò!

English Translation:
Nobody shall sleep!... Nobody shall sleep!
Even you, o Princess, in your cold room, watch the stars,
that tremble with love and with hope.
But my secret is hidden within me,my name no one shall know...
No!...No!... On your mouth I will tell it when the light shines.
And my kiss will dissolve the silence that makes you mine!...
(No one will know his name and we must, alas, die.)
Vanish, o night! Set, stars! Set, stars!
At dawn, I will win! I will win! I will win!
