Michael Bolton - Recondita Armonia текст песни

(tosca)(what strange and lovely harmony)

Recondita armonia di belleze diverse!...

E bruna floria, lardente amante mia.

E te, beltade ignota, cinta di chiome bionde!

Tu azzuro hai locchio, tosca ha locchio nero!

Larte nel suo mistero le diverse belleze insiem confonde:

Ma nel ritrar costei il mio solo pensiero,

Ah! il mio solo pensier, sei tu, tosca, sei tu!

Synopses

Cavaradossi is working on a portrait of the madonna for the

Church of saint andrea. though the painting closely resembles a beautiful

Parishioner there, cavaradossi explains that it is a combination of that woman,

Who he does not know, and his own dark-haired, dark-eyed lover floria tosca.

English translation

What strange and lovely harmony of such different beauties!

How dark is floria, this ardent love of mine.

And you, mysterious beauty, long and blond flowing tresses

How your eyes are sky-blue, toscas eyes are black-night.

Art, too, with its many mysteries, blends all together

Such different beauties. but though I paint another,

My only thought is you, oh, my only thought is you,

Tosca, is you, is you!
