Now this is fun! Really. Have a few glasses of wine, then try it. Don is Don Giovanni (Juan) and Z is the woman he's trying to win:
La cie darem la mano
(Don G)Nay, bid me not resign, love, Coldly the hand I press,
Oh! I say thou wilt be mine, love,
Breathe but that one word, "Yes",
(Zerlina)I would and yet I would not,
I feel my heart misgive,
Shouldst thou prove false, I could not
Become they scorn and live.
(DonG)Come then, o come then, dearest.
(Z)Yet should thy fondness alter
Don G) Nay, love, in vain thou fearest
(Z) Still, still this heart will falter
DG) COme then, come then!
NAy bid me not resign, love,
(Z) I would, and yet I would not
Don G) O say thou wilt be mine
(Z) I feel my heart misgive
(DOn G) Nay , love, in vain thou fearest
(Z) I feel my heart misgive.
Yet should thy fondness alter, Still--still this heart give
A duet kind of thingie
then the allegro section:
Yes, hand and heart uniting
Each others' vows requiting
Our joy no bounds shall know
DG)Oh come!
(Z) I come!
(DG)Oh come!
(Z)I come!
