Nessun dorma
None shall sleep
Tu pure, o Principessa
You too, oh Princess
Nella tua fredda stanza
In your cold room
Guardi le stelle che tremano
You look at the stars that shimmer
D'amore e di speranza
Of love and hope
Ma il mio mistero è chiuso in me
But my mystery is locked inside me
Il nome mio nessun saprà
No one will ever know my name
No, no, sulla tua bocca lo dirò
No, no, I will say it on your lips
Quando la luce splenderà
When the light will shine
Ed il mio bacio scioglierà
And my kiss will melt
Il silenzio che ti fa mia
The silence that makes you mine
(Il nome suo nessun saprà)
(No one will know his name)
(E noi dovremo, ahimè, morir, morir)
(And we will have to, alas, die, die)
Dilegua o notte
Fade away, oh night
Tramontate stelle
Set stars
Tramontate stelle
Set stars
All'alba vincerò
At dawn I will conquer
Vincerò, vincerò
I will conquer, I will conquer
