To you my heart cries out, Perfidia
For I found you, the love of my life
In somebody else's arms

Your eyes are echoing, Perfidia
Forgetful of our promise of love
You're sharing another's charms
With a sad lament, my dreams

Have faded like a broken melody
While the gods of love look down and laugh
At what romantic fools we mortals be
And now I know my love was not for you
And so I'll take it back with a sigh
Perfidious one, good-bye
