Addio Del Passato
Lara Fabian Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Tout comme Violetta, j'arrive à la seconde et dernière partie de ce spectacle
Je doute que tu puisses arriver à temps, mon amour
J'ai besoin de purifier mon âme et de laisser tomber les aria et de chanter pour toi

Addio, del passato bei sogni ridenti
Le rose del volto gia sono pallenti
L'amore d'Alfredo perfino mi manca,
Conforto, sostegno dell' anima stanca.
Conforto ! Sostegno
Ah, della traviata sorridi al desio
A lei, deh, perdona ; tu accoglila, o Dio !
Ah ! Tutto, tutto fini. Or tutto, tutto fini !

Le gioie, i dolori tra poco avran fine,
La tomba ai mortali di tutto e confine
Non lagrima o fiore avra la mia fossa.
Non croce col nome che copra quest'ossa
Non croce, non fiore




Ah, della traviata sorridi al desio
A lei, deh, perdona ; tu accoglila, o Dio
