To you my heart cries out, Perfidia, For I found you, the love of my life, in somebody else’s arms Your eyes are echoing perfidia, Forgetful of our promise of love, you’re sharing another’s charms...
With a sad lament my dreams have faded like a broken melody While the gods of love look down and laugh at what romantic fools we mortals be...
And now I know my love was not for you And so I take it back with a sigh, perfidious one, Goodbye...
