Non mi dir, Donna Anna's recit. and aria from Don Giovanni

Crudele?    I cruel?
Ah no, giammai mio ben!   Ah no, my dearest!
Troppo mi spiace allontanarti   It grieves me much to postpone
un ben che lungamente    a bliss we have for long desired...
 la nostr'alma desia... 
Ma il mondo, o Dio!   But what would the world say?
Non sedur la costanza   Do not tempt the fortitude
del sensibil mio core;   of my tender heart,
ahbastanza per te mi parla amore which already pleads your loving cause.

Non mi dir, bell'idol mio,  Say not, my beloved,
Che son io crudel con te.  that I am cruel to you:
Tu ben sai quant'io t'amai,  you must know how much I loved you,
Tu conosci la mia fe'.   and you know what I am true.
Calma, calma il tuo tormento,  Calm your torments,
Se di duol non vuoi ch'io mora.  if you would not have me die of grief.
Forse un giorno il cielo ancora  One day, perhaps, Heaven again
Sentirà pietà di me.   will smile on me.
