Figlia!

GILDA
Mio padre!

RIGOLETTO
A te d'appresso
Trova sol gioia il core oppresso.

GILDA
Oh, quanto amore, padre mio!

RIGOLETTO
Mia vita sei!
Senza te in terra qual bene avrei?
Oh, figlia mia!

GILDA
Voi sospirate!... che v'ange tanto?
Lo dite a questa povera figlia ...
Se v'ha mistero, per lei sia franto:
Ch'ella conosca la sua famiglia.

RIGOLETTO
Tu non ne hai.

GILDA
Qual nome avete?

RIGOLETTO
A te che importa?

GILDA
Se non volete
Di voi parlarmi...

RIGOLETTO
interrompendola
Non uscir mai.

GILDA
Non vo che al tempio.

RIGOLETTO
Oh, ben tu fai.

GILDA
Se non di voi, almen chi sia
Fate ch'io sappia la madre mia.

RIGOLETTO
Deh, non parlare al misero
Del suo perduto bene.
Ella sentia, quell'angelo,
Pietà delle mie pene.
Solo, difforme, povero,
Per compassion mi amò.
Moria... le zolle coprano
Lievi quel capo amato.
Sola or tu resti al misero...
O Dio, sii ringraziato!

GILDA
singhiozzando
Oh quanto dolor! che spremere
Sì amaro pianto può?
Padre, non più, calmatevi...
Mi lacera tal vista.
Il nome vostro ditemi,
Il duol che sì v'attrista.

RIGOLETTO
A che nomarmi? è inutile!
Padre ti sono, e basti...
Me forse al mondo temono,
D'alcuni ho forse gli asti...
Altri mi maledicono...

GILDA
Patria, parenti, amici
Voi dunque non avete?

RIGOLETTO
Patria!... parenti! amici!
Culto, famiglia, la patria,
Il mio universo è in te!

GILDA
Ah, se può lieto rendervi,
Gioia è la vita a me!

Già da tre lune son qui venuta
Né la cittade ho ancor veduta;
Se il concedete, farlo or potrei...

RIGOLETTO
Mai! mai! Uscita, dimmi, unqua sei?

GILDA
No.

RlGOLETTO
Guai!

GILDA
(Ah! Che dissi!)

RIGOLETTO
Ben te ne guarda!
(Potrien seguirla, rapirla ancora!
Qui d'un buffone si disonora
La figlia, e se ne ride... Orror!)
verso la casa
Olà?

Giovanna esce dalla casa.

GIOVANNA
Signor?

RIGOLETTO
Venendo mi vede alcuno?
Bada, di' il vero.

GIOVANNA
Ah, no, nessuno.

RIGOLETTO
Sta ben... La porta che dà al bastione
È sempre chiusa?

GIOVANNA
Ognor si sta.

RIGOLETTO
Bada, di' il ver.
Ah, veglia, o donna, questo fiore
Che a te puro confidai;
Veglia, attenta, e non sia mai
Che s'offuschi il suo candor.
Tu dei venti dal furore
Ch'altri fiori hanno piegato,
Lo difendi, e immacolato
Lo ridona al genitor.

GILDA
Quanto affetto! quali cure!
Che temete, padre mio?
Lassù in cielo presso Dio
Veglia un angiol protettor.
Da noi stoglie le sventure
Di mia madre il priego santo;
Non fia mai disvelto o franto
Questo a voi diletto fior.

Il Duca in costume borghese viene dalla strada.

RIGOLETTO
Ah, veglia, o donna, questo fiore
Che a te puro confi...
Alcun v'è fuori!

Apre la porta della corte e, mentre esce a guardar sulla strada, il Duca guizza furtivo nella corte e si nasconde dietro l'albero; gettando a Giovanna una borsa la fa tacere.

GILDA
Cielo!
Sempre novel sospetto!

RIGOLETTO
a Giovanna, tornando
Alla chiesa vi seguiva mai nessuno?

GIOVANNA
Mai.

DUCA
(Rigoletto!)

RIGOLETTO
Se talor qui picchian,
Guardatevi d'aprire...

GIOVANNA
Nemmeno al Duca?

RIGOLETTO
Men che ad altri a lui.
Mia figlia, addio.

DUCA
(Sua figlia!)

GILDA
Addio, mio padre.

RIGOLETTO
Ah! veglia, o donna, ecc.
Mia figlia, addio!

GILDA
Oh, quanto affetto! ecc.
Mio padre, addio!

S'abbracciano e Rigoletto parte chiudendosi dietro la porta. Gilda, Giovanna e il Duca restano nella corte.

    great voices this could probably have been the best but sorry... the stage production of sutherland, pavarotti and milnes is still top on my list of rigoletto dvd's i like to own one day... on cd you have to get merril and moffo their are just super good:)

    the picture, costume and set in this film version is perfect10/10 for that:)they're forcing their voices too much, don't get me wrong i love gruberova but here she lost the child in gilda:(

    I don't really like Sutherland. The way she says things is just to annoying. I love the one with Moffo and Merill though.

    i understand she is after all a very drdamatic soprano and gilda is an inbetweener for her huge voice but she is the best there was and will be for years to come. moffo is truely great as gilda as well as callas... do you have the dvd or the cd of moffo and merril?

    I wasn't aware that there was a dvd. I have both the callas and moffo recordings, and moffo is the best Gilda IMO. I also have the one with Scotto and Fischer-Dieskau and it's pretty good. It sounds different to other recordings. Maybe I'll put up the duet from that one tomorrow if you like.

    please do. i don't know, i was hoping you would know. i saw rigoletto a few weeks back and it was something special ... the voices that is all local but beautifully executed. the guy that did rigoletto can give goddi and milnes a run for their money i wish i had a recording of that so i can show or let you listen to

    This is a good film. Gruberova is a good Gilda. But, when I want to hear Rigoletto, I always return to Moffo and Merrill.
