The treachery

Gaetano Donizetti

Ah! traitor, you have left me

And you have exchanged me for that other woman,

Yes, I know, she is more beautiful than me

But as for faithful, you will see soon.

The treachery you have shown me,

She will show you before tomorrow is over.

And these tears that are choking me now,

You must pay back, and with interest.
