Vieni, la mia vendetta, Duke Alfonso's aria from Lucrezia Borgia

Vieni, la mia vendetta
È mediatata e pronta;
Ei l'assicura e affretta
Col cieco suo fidar.

Mai per cotesti insani
Me non vorrà sfidar,
No, no.

Qualunque sia l'evento
Che può recar fortuna,
Nemico non pavento
L'altero ambasciator.
Non sempre chiusa ai popoli
Fu la fatal Laguna,
Non sempre fu la fatal Laguna, no:
Ad oltraggiato principe
Aprir si puote ancor.
