Текст песни: Ca Ira: Opera in Three Acts: "My Dear Cousin Bourbon of Spain..." + перевод

My Dear Cousin Bourbon of Spain

This letter I entrust to a courier faithful and sure

Is to calm your fears and tell you cousin dear

My heart is pure

This red cap I wear,

These lies they’ve made me swear

Are repugnant to my soul

My very bones cry out in pain

Cousin Bourbon of Spain

You know my feelings well

You’ve heard what I’ve had to say

But now all my beliefs

Have been snatched by these thieves

And cruelly torn away

But none of the scum who run through the streets

Taking law from a bottle of wine

Could presume to assume the fealty due

To me or to you from your subjects or Mine

My dear cousin Bourbon n of Spain

Let’s make a pact, let’s campaign

Let us whip back to their kennels again

These dogs who speak of virtue

Help me, cousin

Help me cousin Bourbon of Spain
