Thist is sung by a daughter wheedling consent from her doting father:
O mio babbino caro, Mi piace, e bello bello, Vo andare in Porta Rossa A comperar I anello! Si,si ci voglio andare E se I amassi indarno Andrei sui Ponte Vecchio Ma per buttaarmi in Arno! Mi struggo e mi tormento! O Dio, vorrei morir! Babbo, pieta, pieta! Babbo, pieta, pieta!
Translation
Oh my dear daddy I love him, he is so handsome I want to go to Porta Rossa To buy the ring! Yes, yes, I mean it And if my love were in vain I would go to Ponte Vecchio And throw myself in the Arno! I fret and suffer torments! Oh God, I would rather die! Daddy, have pity, have pity! Daddy, have pity, have pity!
