LEPORELLO<br />
Signor, vel dono.<br />
DON GIOVANNI<br />
Via, via, vien qua, vien qua.<br />
Che belle cose ti deggio dir.<br />
LA STATUA<br />
Di rider finirai pria dell’aurora!<br />
DON GIOVANNI<br />
Chi ha parlato?<br />
LEPORELLO<br />
Ah, qualche anima sarà dell’altro mondo,<br />
che vi conosce a fondo.<br />
DON GIOVANNI<br />
Taci, sciocco! Chi va là?<br />
(Mette mano alla spada.)<br />
LA STATUA<br />
Ribaldo, audace! Lascia ai morti la pace!<br />
LEPORELLO<br />
Ve l’ho detto!<br />
DON GIOVANNI<br />
Sarà qualcun di fuori che si burla di noi!<br />
Ehi, del Commendatore non è questa la<br />
statua? Leggi un poco quella iscrizion.<br />
LEPORELLO<br />
Scusate, no ho imparato a leggere a’<br />
raggi della luna.<br />
DON GIOVANNI<br />
Leggi, dico!<br />
DON GIOVANNI<br />
Come, come! Now listen!<br />
What wonderful things I have to tell you.<br />
THE STATUE<br />
You will have your last laugh before<br />
the next dawn!<br />
DON GIOVANNI<br />
Who spoke?<br />
LEPORELLO<br />
Ah, it must be some spirit from another<br />
world who knows you well.<br />
DON GIOVANNI<br />
Keep quiet, you fool. Who goes there?<br />
(He takes out his sword.)<br />
THE STATUE<br />
Audacious libertine! Leave the dead in peace!<br />
LEPORELLO<br />
I told you so!<br />
DON GIOVANNI<br />
It must be someone outside having a joke<br />
on us! Hey, isn’t this the<br />
Commandant’s statue?<br />
Read the inscription.<br />
LEPORELLO<br />
Excuse me, but I never learned to<br />
read by moonlight.<br />
DON GIOVANNI<br />
Read, I tell you!<br />
LEPORELLO<br />
“Upon the base one who sent me to my<br />
death I here await vengeance.” Did<br />
you hear that? I’m afraid!<br />
DON GIOVANNI<br />
C’est bon; viens donc, approche.<br />
J’ai des merveilles à te conter.<br />
LA STATUE DU COMMANDEUR<br />
Ton rire cessera, avant l’aurore.<br />
DON GIOVANNI<br />
Mais, qui parle?<br />
LEPORELLO<br />
Ah! cette âme, qui vient vers nous<br />
de l’autre monde, doit vous connaître à fond.<br />
DON GIOVANNI<br />
Tais-toi, nigaud! Qui va là? Qui va là?<br />
(Il tire son épée.)<br />
LA STATUE DU COMMANDEUR<br />
Arrière, impie! Et respecte les tombes.<br />
LEPORELLO<br />
Vous l’ai-je dit?<br />
DON GIOVANNI<br />
Quelqu’un, derrière le mur, se moque de<br />
nous!...<br />
Eh! le Commandeur!...Une belle statue!...<br />
Lis-moi donc les titres qu’on lui donne.<br />
LEPORELLO<br />
Mille excuses...Moi, je n’ai pas appris à lire<br />
aux rayons de la lune.<br />
DON GIOVANNI<br />
Lis, te dis-je!<br />
LEPORELLO<br />
«Un traître m’a tué; mais, dans ma tombe,<br />
j’attends ma vengeance!»<br />
Entendez-vous?...Je tremble!
