      Libretto/Lyrics/Text/Testo: 
        O mio babbino caro, 
mi piace è bello, bello; 
vo'andare in Porta Rossa 
a comperar l'anello! 
Sì, sì, ci voglio andare! 
e se l'amassi indarno, 
andrei sul Ponte Vecchio, 
ma per buttarmi in Arno! 
Mi struggo e mi tormento! 
O Dio, vorrei morir! 
Babbo, pietà, pietà! 
                 
                  
          | English Translation: 
          Oh my dear daddy 
I love him, he is so handsome 
I want to go to Porta Rossa 
to buy the ring! 
Yes, yes, I mean it 
And if my love were in vain 
I would go to Ponte Vecchio 
and throw myself in the Arno! 
I fret and suffer torments! 
Oh God, I would rather die! 
Daddy, have pity, have pity! 
Daddy, have pity, have pity!
