Plebe! Patrizi!, Simon's aria from Simon Boccanegra

Plebe! Patrizi!
Popolo dalla feroce storia!
Erede sol dell'odio dei Spinola, dei Doria,
Mentre v'invita estatico 
Il regno ampio dei mari,
Voi nei fraterni lari vi lacerate il cor.
Piango su voi, 
Sul placido raggio del vostro clivo
Là dove invan germoglia il ramo dell'ulivo.
Piango sulla mendace festa dei vostri fior
E vo gridando : pace!
E vo gridando : amor!
