Lyrics & English Translation
AMNERIS
Alas!... I shall surely die. Oh, who will save him?
And into their power
I myself delivered him! Now, I curse thee,
vile jealousy, that did point
the way to his death and my heart's eternal grief.
Here are the fatal
and inexorable ministers of death!
Oh, let me not see those white phantoms!
covering her face with her hands
And into their power
I myself delivered him!
RAMFIS, PRIESTS
Heavenly spirit descend upon us!
Strengthen us in the beams of the light eternal;
through our lips make known thy justice.
AMNERIS
Gods, have pity on my anguished heart.
He is innocent, save him, oh gods!
Great and desperate is my grief!
Radamès is taken by his guards to the subterranean judgment chamber. Amneris, seeing him, cries out.
RAMFIS, PRIESTS
Heavenly spirit, descend upon us!
AMNERIS
Oh, who will save him?
I shall surely die! Ah me!
RAMFIS
Radamès! Radamès! Radamès! You did reveal
your country's secrets to the enemy.
Justify yourself!
PRIESTS
Justify yourself!
RAMFIS
He is silent.
RAMFIS, PRIESTS
Traitor!
AMNERIS
Oh mercy! He is innocent, gods, have pity!
RAMFIS
Radamès! Radamès! Radamès! You did desert
your camp the day preceding the battle.
Justify yourself!
PRIESTS
Justify yourself!
RAMFIS
He is silent.
RAMFIS, PRIESTS
Traitor!
AMNERIS
Ah pity! Oh, save him, gods, have pity!
RAMFIS
Radamès! Radamès! Radamès! You did violate
your trust and betray your country, king and honour.
Justify yourself!
PRIESTS
Justify yourself!
RAMFIS
He is silent.
RAMFIS, PRIESTS
Traitor!
AMNERIS
Ah pity! Oh, save him, oh gods, have pity!
RAMFIS, PRIESTS
Radamès, your fate is decided;
you shall die a criminal's death;
beneath the altar of the angry god
you will find a living tomb.
AMNERIS
Alive in the tomb... Oh, the criminals!
They are never sated with blood...
and they call themselves ministers of heaven!
RAMFIS, PRIESTS
Traitor! Traitor! Traitor!
AMNERIS
Oh priests, you have committed a crime!
Wicked tigers, thirsting for blood,
you have outraged both heaven and earth...
you have punished where there is no guilt
RAMFIS
He is a traitor!
PRIESTS
He is a traitor!
RAMFIS, PRIESTS
He shall die!
AMNERIS
Oh priest, you know this man whom
now you slay was once loved by me.
Along with his blood, the curses of a
broken heart will fall upon your head!
RAMFIS
He is a traitor!
PRIESTS
He is a traitor!
RAMFIS, PRIESTS
He shall die!
AMNERIS
You have outraged both earth and heaven,
you have punished where there is no guilt.
Ah no, he is no traitor. Have mercy!
RAMFIS, PRIESTS
He shall die!
He is a traitor! He shall die!
They go out slowly.
Traitor! Traitor! Traitor!
AMNERIS
Impious body! A curse upon you!
Vengeance will descend from heaven!
Curses on you!
