VIOLETTA
Dammi tu forza, o cielo!

ANNINA
Mi richiedeste?

VIOLETTA
Si', reca tu stessa
Questo foglio

VIOLETTA
Silenzio va' all'istante

Ed ora si scriva a lui
Che gli diro'? Chi men dara' il coraggio?

ALFREDO
Che fai?

VIOLETTA
Nulla.

ALFREDO
Scrivevi?

VIOLETTA
Si' no

ALFREDO
Qual turbamento!
a chi scrivevi?

VIOLETTA
A te

ALFREDO
Dammi quel foglio.

VIOLETTA
No, per ora

ALFREDO
Mi perdona son io preoccupato.

VIOLETTA
Che fu?

ALFREDO
Giunse mio padre

VIOLETTA
Lo vedesti?

ALFREDO
Ah no: severo scritto mi lasciava
Pero' l'attendo,
t'amera' in vederti.

VIOLETTA
Ch'ei qui non mi sorprenda
Lascia che m'allontani tu lo calma

Ai piedi suoi
mi gettero' divisi
Ei piu' non ne vorra' sarem felici
Perche' tu m'ami
,Alfredo, non e' vero?

ALFREDO
O, quanto Perche' piangi?

VIOLETTA
Di lagrime avea
d'uopo or son tranquilla
Lo vedi? ti sorrido - lo vedi?
Saro' la', tra quei fior presso
a te sempre.
Amami, Alfredo, amami,
quant'io t'amo
Addio!

VIOLETTA
Give me strength, o heaven!

ANNINA
You rang for me?

VIOLETTA
Yes, please carry
This letter yourself.

VIOLETTA
Silence - go immediately.

And now to write to him.
What can I say? Who will give me courage?

ALFREDO
What are you doing?

VIOLETTA
Nothing.

ALFREDO
You were writing?

VIOLETTA
No - Yes

ALFREDO
But what confusion!
To whom were you writing?

VIOLETTA
To you

ALFREDO
Give me the letter

VIOLETTA
No, not now.

ALFREDO
Forgive me - I am concerned about -

VIOLETTA
What has happened?

ALFREDO
My father was here.

VIOLETTA
Did you see him?

ALFREDO
Ah no. He left a stern letter for me.
But I'm expecting him.
He'll love you at first sight.

VIOLETTA
He must not find me here.
Let me go away - you calm him

I'll throw myself at his feet - then
He'll not want to separate us.
We shall be happy
Because you love me, you love me
Alfredo, you love me, don't you?

ALFREDO
So much! Why are you weeping?

VIOLETTA
I needed tears - Now I feel better
See ? I am smiling at you - see?
Now I feel better - I am smiling at you.
I shall always be here, near you.
Among the flowers.
Love me, Alfredo,
love me as much as I love you.
Goodbye!
