Suicidio!...

In questi fieri momenti

tu sol mi resti,

e il cor mi tenti.

Ultima voce

del mio destino,

ultima croce

del mio cammin.

E un dì leggiadro

volavan l'ore,

perdei la madre,

perdei l'amore,

vinsi l'infausta

gelosa febre!

Or piombo esausta

Fra le tenèbre!

Tocco alla meta...

Domando al cielo

Di dormir quieta

Dentro l'avel...

​

Suicide!

So be it! In this terrible hour

what is left for me

As death by your own hand?

Then will be silent

The yearning of the heart

And then will end

My suffering, my pain.

How light and cheerful

Otherwise fly the days...

The dear mother

have i lost

I lost him too:

And those horrors

are overcome

But all forces

Gone from me too.

Close to my goal

I beg to God:

have mercy on me

and leave in the grave

Find me rest!
