No, no, non si speri by Giacomo Carissimi. Performed by mezzo-soprano Toby Branz, 2010. http://www.tobybranz.com/ Text (Italian): No, no, non si speri No, no, non si speri! È morta la speme! Piangete, pensieri! A bruno vestiti, nel vostro dolore desiri traditi lasciate il mio core! Le gioie d'amore son lampi fugaci, mendaci, leggiere! Original Text: Giacomo Carissimi - No, no, do not be hopeful No, no, do not be hopeful Hope is dead! Weep, thoughts! Betrayed desires, clothed in mourning because of your sorrow, leave my heart! The joys of love are fleeting, lying, fickle flashes! English Translation: Martha Gerhart
