Miten käänät (italia)

E lucevan le stelle...
ed olezzava la terra...
stridea l'uscio dell'orto...
e un passo sfiorava la rena...
Entrava ella, fragrante,
mi cadea fra le braccia...
Oh! dolci baci, o languide carezze,
mentr'io fremente
le belle forme disciogliea dai veli!
Svanì per sempre il sogno mio d'amore...
L'ora è fuggita...
E muoio disperato!
E non ho amato mai tanto la vita!...

englanti (versio 1)

The stars were gleaming…
The ground was fragrant…
The creak of the garden gate…
light footsteps in the sand,
the smell of her hair.
She came and fell into my arms.
Oh tender kisses, sweet caresses,
While, trembling, I beheld
Her beautiful form freed of its gown.
Gone forever is my dream of love.
Time has fled, and I die in despair!
I die in despair,
But never have I loved life so much

englanti (versio 2)

How the stars seemed to shimmer,
the sweet scents of the garden,
how the creaking gate whispered,
and a footstep skimmed over the sand,
how she then entered, so fragrant,
and then fell into my two arms!
Ah sweetest of kiss, languorous caresses,
while I stood trembling, searching her features
concealed by her mantle. My dreams of pure love,
forgotten forever! All of it's gone now!
I die hopeless, despairing, and never before
have I loved life like this!

englanti (versio 3)

And the stars shone and the earth was perfumed.
The gate to the garden creaked and a footstep
rustled the sand to the path...
Fragrant, she entered
and fell into my arms...
Oh, soft kisses, oh, sweet abandon,
as I trembling
unloosed her veils and disclosed her beauty.
Oh, vanished forever is that dream of love,
fled is that hour...
and desperately I die.
And never before have I loved life so much!

saksa

Die Sterne leuchteten, die Erde duftete,
die Gartentüre knarrte,
Schritte kündeten die Königin…
Sie war es, die hereintrat,
sich mir in die Arme warf…
O süsse Küsse, schmachtendes Liebkosen,
während ich bebend enthüllte
die in Schleiern verborgenen Reize ihrer Formen.
Für immer ist der Liebesrausch dahin,
verflogen ist die Stunde…
und ich sterbe in Verzweiflung!
Und habe nie zuvor das Leben so geliebt!

ranska

Les étoiles brillaient, la terre embaumait.
La porte du jardin grinça
et des pas firent craquer le gravier de l'allée...
Elle entrait, toute fraicheur,
et se jetait dans mes bras...
Ah ! ses doux baisers, ses tendres caresses,
et je tremblais
tandis qu'elle me révélait toute sa beauté.
À jamais enfui mon rêve d'amour...
L'heure s'achève...
je meurs désespéré.
Et jamais je n'ai tant aimé la vie!

Google-hakusanoilla "E lucevan le stelle" nämä ynnä yhtä ja toista muutakin. Tai voihan hakusanoina käyttää vaikka "Puccini Tosca libretto".
