Non ho colpa, e mi condanni, Idamante's aria from Idomeneo

Non ho colpa, e mi condanni
Idol mio, perché t'adoro.
Colpa è vostra, oh Dei tiranni,
E di pena afflitto io moro
D'un error che mio non è.
Se tu brami, al tuo impero
Aprirommi questo seno,
Ne' tuoi lumi il leggo, è vero,
Ma me'l dica il labbro almeno
E non chiedo altra mercè.
