"Oh dolce notte, oh sante
ore notturne e quete
ch'i disiosi amanti accompagnate;
in voi s'adunan tante
letizie, onde voi siete
sole cagion di far l'alme beate."
"O sweetest night, o blessed
hours of calm and darkness,
the boon companions of desire-filled lovers;
in you there gather all
the pleasure that make you
the single source of our blessedness."
("La Mandragola" - excerpt from the song after the fourth act)
