Recondita armonia lyrics

Artist  : Michael bolton 
Song : Recondita armonia
 
(tosca)(what strange and lovely harmony)

Recondita armonia di belleze diverse!...
E bruna floria, l’ardente amante mia.
E te, beltade ignota, cinta di chiome bionde!
Tu azzuro hai l’occhio, tosca ha l’occhio nero!
L’arte nel suo mistero le diverse belleze insiem
confonde:
Ma nel ritrar costei il mio solo pensiero,
Ah! il mio solo pensier, sei tu, tosca, sei tu!
Synopses
Cavaradossi is working on a portrait of the
madonna for the
Church of saint andrea. though the painting
closely resembles a beautiful
Parishioner there, cavaradossi explains that it
is a combination of that woman,
Who he does not know, and his own dark-haired,
dark-eyed lover floria tosca.
English translation
What strange and lovely harmony of such different
beauties!
How dark is floria, this ardent love of mine.
And you, mysterious beauty, long and blond
flowing tresses
How your eyes are sky-blue, tosca’s eyes are
black-night.
Art, too, with it’s many mysteries, blends all
together
Such different beauties. but though I paint
another,
My only thought is you, oh, my only thought is
you,
Tosca, is you, is you!
