Translation (by supertitlist Thomas Getty):
- Poor little thing. - It's a great pity.

Will she give him his son?

He may have him if he comes for him.
In one half hour, you may come up the hill.

Like a the wings of a trapped fly,
her little heart is beating wildly!

There's too much light, too much springtime.

Where is the baby?

He's playing. I'll call him.

Let him play. Go and stay with him.

- Let me stay with you! - Go! I command you!

Well, the conductor can not afford a suit. Watch Mirella Freni if you want the best!
