“Per la gloria d’adorarvi” by, Giovanni Bononcini has a sunny warmth to it that performers and audiences alike find very appealing. The performer should take care not to rush this piece or borrow a mechanistic vocal approach from the structure of the accompaniment (an easy trap when performing with piano rather than full orchestra). At its best, this composition exudes expansive lyricism and nobility. It’s a wonderful opener to a recital.

Here are the “Per la gloria d’adorarvi” lyrics and “Per la gloria d’adorarvi” translation , as well as representative performances in all voice types.

Per la gloria d’adorarvi lyrics

Per la gloria d’adorarvi
voglio amarvi,
o luci care.
Amando penero,
ma sempre v’amerò,
sì, sì, nel mio penare,
penerò,
v’amerò,
luci care.

Senza speme di diletto
vano affetto
è sospirare,
ma i vostri dolci rai
chi vagheggiar può mai
e non, e non v’amare?
penerò,
v’amerò,
luci care!

***

For the glory of adoring you
I want to love you,
oh dear eyes.
In love I will suffer,
yet always I will love you,
Yes, in my suffering:
I will suffer,
I will love you,
dear, dear eyes.

Without a hope of pleasure
It is vain affection
to sigh,
Yet your sweet glances:
Who can ever admire them,
No, and not love you?
I will suffer,
I will love you,
dear, dear eyes.
