Michelangelo Falvetti (1642-1692)
"Nabucco" (Messina, 1683)
Aria "S'alla mia imago" / Aria "Di mia scolpita effigie"
"S'alla mia imago tributa il Tago arene d'oro"
To mi image let the Tagus offer in tribute its golden sands
"Grati profumi d'arabi fumi tramanda il Moro"
And let the Moor convey to us the pleasant perfumes of Arabian incense
"Di mia scolpita effigie i bei splendori incensi l'Asia e Babilonia adori"
And let Asia revere and Babylon adore the fair splendours of my sculpted likeness
