Rossini's Barber of Seville - Rosina

"Io sono docile, son rispettosa, sono obbediente, dolce, amorosa. Mi lascio
reggere, mi lascio reggere, mi fo guidar, mi fo guidar. Ma se mi toccano dov'è
il mio debole, sarò und vipera, sarò, e cento trappole prima di cedere, farò
giocar, farò giocar."
"I am docile, I am respectful, I am obedient, sweet and loving. I can be ruled, I
can be guided, but if I am touched where I am weak, I will be a viper, and a
hundred tricks I shall play, before they have their way."
