In quelle trine morbide, Manon's aria from Manon Lescaut

In quelle trine morbide...
nell’alcova dorata v’è un silenzio
gelido, mortal, v’è un silenzio,
un freddo che m’agghiaccia!
Ed io che m’ero avvezza
a una carezza
voluttuosa
di labbra ardenti e d’infuocate braccia...
or ho tutt’altra cosa!
O mia dimora umile,
tu mi ritorni innanzi
gaia, isolata, bianca
come un sogno gentile
di pace e d’amor!
