Fuggi, regal fantasima,  Macbeth's aria from Macbeth

Fuggi, regal fantasima,
Che Banco a me rammenti!
La tua corona è folgore,
Gli occhi mi fai roventi!
Via, spaventosa immagine
Che il crin di bende hai cinto!
Ed altri ancor ne sorgono?
Un terzo? Un quarto? Un quinto?
Oh! mio terror!
Dell'ultimo splende uno specchio in mano,
E nuovi Re s'attergano 
Dentro al cristallo arcano...
È Banco!  Ahi, vista orribile!
Ridendo a me gli addita!
Muori, fatal progenie!
Ah! che non hai tu vita!
Oh mio terror!
Vivran costor?  Oh! me perduto!
