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'll take it back with a sigh, perfidious one, goodbye.
