Ah, la paterna mano,  Macduff's aria from Macbeth

O figli, o figlio miei!				Ah, sons, my dear sons!
Da quel tiranno tutti uccisi voi foste,		You all were killed by that tyrant,
e insiem con voi la madre sventurata!		and, together with you, your unhappy mother too!
Ah, fra gli artigli di quel tigre 		Ah! I let into the claws of that tiger
Io lasciai la madre e i figli?			the mother and her sons!

Ah, la paterna mano non vi fu scudo, o cari,	Ah! The paternal hand didn't defend you, 
							my dears,
Dai perfidi sicari che a morte vi ferîr!	from the hired ruffians that wounded you 
							to death!
E me fuggiasco, occulto voi chiamavate invano	And you looked in vain for me, a 
							concealed fugitive,
Coll'ultimo singulto, coll'ultio respir.	with your last sobs, with your last sighs.
Ah! trammi al tiranno in faccia,		Ah! Bring me in front of that tyrant,
Signore, e s'ei mi sfugge			Lord, and if he escapes from me
Possa a colui le braccia del tuo perdono aprir.	may I offer him to Your forgiveness.
