Joyce DiDonato: Pergolesi, 'Se tu m'ami'

Lyrics & English Translation If you love me, if you sigh Only for me, dear shepherd, I am sorrowful for your sufferings; yet I delight in your love. But if you think that I must in return love only you, Little shepherd, you are subject To deceiving yourself easily. The beautiful purple rose Will Silvia choose today; With the excuse of its thorns, Tomorrow, then, will she despise it. But the advice of the men I will not follow - Just because the lily pleases me, I do not have to despise the other flowers. Please Enjoy! I send my kind and warm regards,
