GIARDINO DELLA CASA DI DONNA<br />
ANNA, NOTTE.<br />
(LEPORELLO passeggia davanti la casa di<br />
DONNA ANNA.)<br />
LEPORELLO<br />
Notte e giorno faticar,<br />
Per chi nulla sa gradir,<br />
Piova e vento sopportar,<br />
Mangiar male e mal dormir.<br />
Voglio fare il gentiluomo<br />
E non voglio più servir.<br />
Oh che caro galantuomo!<br />
Voi star dentro colla bella,<br />
Ed io far la sentinella!<br />
Ma mi par che venga gente;<br />
Non mi voglio far sentir.<br />
(S’asconde. Entra DONNA ANNA trattenendo<br />
DON GIOVANNI.)<br />
DONNA ANNA<br />
Non sperar, se non m’uccidi,<br />
Ch’io ti lasci fuggir mai!<br />
DON GIOVANNI<br />
<strong>Don</strong>na folle! Indarno gridi,<br />
Chi son io tu non saprai!<br />
LEPORELLO<br />
(A parte)<br />
Che tumulto! Oh ciel, che gridi!<br />
Il padron in nuovi guai.<br />

DON GIOVANNI<br />
THE GARDEN OF DONNA ANNA’S<br />
HOUSE; NIGHT.<br />
(LEPORELLO is seen pacing back and forth<br />
in front of DONNA ANNA’S house.)<br />
LEPORELLO<br />
Night and day I slave<br />
For one who does not appreciate it.<br />
I put up with wind and rain,<br />
Eat and sleep badly.<br />
I want to be a gentleman<br />
And give up my servitude.<br />
Oh, what a fine gentleman!<br />
You stay inside with your lady<br />
And I must play the sentinel!<br />
But I think someone is coming;<br />
I don’t want them to hear me.<br />
(He hides, DON GIOVANNI and DONNA<br />
ANNA rush out of the house. She is trying<br />
desperately to detain him very much against his will.)<br />
DONNA ANNA<br />
There’s no hope, unless you kill me,<br />
That I’ll ever let you go!<br />
DON GIOVANNI<br />
Idiot! You scream in vain.<br />
Who I am you’ll never know!<br />
LEPORELLO<br />
(Aside)<br />
What a racket! Heaven, what screams!<br />
My master in another scrape.<br />
Ouverture<br />
Acte 1<br />
LE JARDIN DE LA MAISON DE<br />
DONNA ANNA. C’EST LA NUIT.<br />
(LEPORELLO se promène devant la maison<br />
de DONNA ANNA.)<br />
LEPORELLO<br />
Nuit et jour se fatiguer,<br />
sans profit et sans plaisir;<br />
pluie et vent, les supporter,<br />
manger mal et mal dormir.<br />
Ah! faisons le gentilhomme;<br />
Non, non, non, plus de maître à servir!<br />
Il peut cajoler sa belle;<br />
moi, je reste en sentinelle.<br />
Ah! Faisons le gentilhomme, etc.<br />
Mais, par là, quel bruit de pas?<br />
Il ne faut pas me trahir.<br />
(Il se cache. DON ANNA entre, elle<br />
retient DON GIOVANNI.)<br />
DONNA ANNA<br />
Misérable, sur ma vie,<br />
ne crois-tu pas que tu vas fuir!<br />
DON GIOVANNI<br />
Imprudente, pas d’esclandre,<br />
tu ne peux savoir mon nom.<br />
LEPORELLO<br />
(À part)<br />
Quel tumulte, grands dieux, quel drame!<br />
Pour mon maître, un mauvais pas!
