Giacomo Puccini – Tu che di gel sei cinta

English translation

Italian

Original lyrics

Tu che di gel sei cinta

da tanta fiamma vinta

l'amerai anche tu!

L'amerai anche tu!

Prima di quest'aurora

io chiudo stanca gli occhi

perché egli vinca ancora...

egli vinca ancora...

per non

per non vederlo piu!

Prima di quest'aurora

di quest'aurora

io chiudo stanca gli occhi

per non vederlo piu!

Translation#1 #2#3

You Who Freezes The Boundry

You who freezes the boundary

That was won by such flame

I will love even you

Before this dawn

I will close my weary eyes

Because he wins again

He wins again...

To not

To not see any more!

Before this dawn

I will close my weary eyes

To not see any more!

I don't know... I know very little Italian, but this is the best I could make of it. I hope you get someone more experienced to answer this, but just in case you don't you will at lease have some vague idea

AvaFunk actually has been nice for having tried to translate this aria, but unfortunately she did a quite poor translation.
The very meaning of the first lines is, more or less: "Even though you are a icy, frigid woman,you will be overpowered by such a mighty flame(the flame of love), and will fall in love with him, you too!"
