18 by Shakespeare

Shall I compare thee to a summer's day?
Thou art more lovely and more temperate.
Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May,
And summer's lease hath all too short a date.
Sometime too hot the eye of heaven shines,
And often in his gold complexion dimmed;
And every fair from fair sometime declines,
By chance, or nature's changing course, untrimmed;
But thy eternal summer shall not fade,
Nor lose possession of that fair thou ow'st,
Nor shall Death brag thou wand'rest in his shade,
When in eternal lines to time thou grow'st.
So long as men can breathe or eyes can see,
So long lives this, and this gives life to thee.

Che Gelida Manina ou Rime ed Inni D'Amore

Com Pavarotti, pode aplicar essa na veia. A tradução para o inglês foi a que encontrei na web. Essa pegou!

Che gelida manina, Rodolfo's aria from La Bohème

Che gelida manina,____ What a frozen little hand,
se la lasci riscaldar.____ let me warm it for you.
Cercar che giova?____ What’s the use of looking?
Al buio non si trova.____ We won't find it in the dark.
Ma per fortuna____ But luckily
é una notte di luna,____ it’s a moonlit night,
e qui la luna____ and the moon
l’abbiamo vicina.____ is near us here.
Aspetti, signorina,____ Wait, mademoiselle,
le dirò con due parole____ I will tell you in two words
chi son, e che faccio,____ who I am, what I do,
come vivo. Vuole?____ and how I live. May I?
Chi son? Sono un poeta.____ Who am I? I am a poet.
Che cosa faccio? Scrivo.____ What do I do? I write.
E come vivo? Vivo.____ And how do I live? I live.
In povertà mia lieta____ In my carefree poverty
scialo da gran signore____ I squander rhymes
rime ed inni d’amore.____ and love songs like a lord.
Per sogni e per chimere____ When it comes to dreams and visions
e per castelli in aria,____ and castles in the air,
l’anima ho milionaria.____ I’ve the soul of a millionaire.
Talor dal mio forziere____ From time to time two thieves
ruban tutti i gioelli____ steal all the jewels
due ladri, gli occhi belli.____ out of my safe, two pretty eyes.
V’entrar con voi pur ora,____ They came in with you just now,
ed i miei sogni usati____ and my customary dreams
e i bei sogni miei,____ my lovely dreams,
tosto si dileguar!____ melted at once into thin air!
Ma il furto non m’accora,____ But the theft doesn’t anger me,
poiché, poiché v’ha preso stanza____ for their place has been
la speranza!____ taken by hope!
Or che mi conoscete,____ Now that you know all about me,
parlate voi, deh! Parlate.____ you tell me who you are.
Chi siete? Vi piaccia dir!____ Please do!
