La dolcissima effigie, Maurizio's aria from Adriana Lecouvreur

La dolcissima effigie sorridente
in te rivedo della madre cara;
nel tuo cor della mia patria,
dolce, preclara, l'aura ribevo,
che m'aprì la mente...
Bella tu sei, come la mia bandiera,
delle pugne fiammante entro i vapor;
tu sei gioconda come la chimera
della Gloria, promessa al vincitor,
Bella tu sei, tu sei gioconda,
Sì!  Amor mi fa poeta!
