''Va pensiero'' from the Opera "Nabucco" - Giuseppe Fortunino Francesco Verdi. Chorus and Orchestra of the Accademia Nacionale di Santa Cecilia.

Va’ pensiero sull’ali dorate
Attraversa le montagne e vola
Sugli oceani.
Raggiungi la terra, trova il luogo
Dove vanno tutti i bambini
Ogni notte dopo aver sentito questa ninnananna.
Lì troverai i loro eroi vivi
Che proteggono la loro innocenza
Benedicili tutti perchè il loro animo semplice
è tanto puro e meraviglioso.

Va’ pensiero sull’ali dorate
Fai continuare questo sogno bellissimo
Per tutta la notte.

Presta loro le tue ali dorate
Tutte le paure voleranno via
Prendili per mano
Aiutali a trovare una strada facile
Riportali alla luce, riportali alla luce
Alla quale appartenevano un tempo
Dove possono restare
Bambini per tutto il tempo che vogliono.

Va’ pensiero sull’ali dorate
Attraversa le montagne e vola
Sugli oceani.
Raggiungi la terra, trova il luogo
Dove vanno tutti i bambini
Ogni notte dopo aver sentito questa ninnananna.
Ogni notte dopo aver sentito questa ninna nanna

Traducción al castellano:

¡Vuela pensamiento, con alas doradas,
pósate en las praderas y en las cimas
donde exhala su suave fragancia
el aire dulce de la tierra natal!
¡Saluda a las orillas del Jordán
y a las destruidas torres de Sión!
¡Oh, mi patria, tan bella y abandonada!
¡Oh recuerdo tan grato y fatal!
Arpa de oro de los fatídicos vates,
¿por qué cuelgas silenciosa del sauce?
Revive en nuestros pechos el recuerdo,
¡háblanos del tiempo que fue!
Canta un aire de crudo lamento
al destino de Jerusalén
o que te inspire el Señor una melodía
que infunda virtud al padecimiento.
que infunda virtud al padecimiento.
que infunda virtud al padecimiento.
virtud al padecimiento.

Va pensiero / Nabucco. Guiussepe Verdi

Romantic Classics is a heartfelt collection of timeless melodies that celebrate love, hope, and human spirit across centuries and cultures. From the sacred beauty of Ave Maria and the soaring devotion of You Raise Me Up, to the cinematic poignancy of Schindler’s List and the grandeur of Nessun Dorma, each piece carries deep emotional resonance. Beloved folk songs like Danny Boy and Santa Lucia stand beside masterworks of Bach, Vivaldi, and Pachelbel, weaving together threads of classical elegance, sacred reflection, and popular balladry. With Titanic and Hero bringing modern romantic drama, and Jerusalem and Love Changes Everything lifting the heart with anthem-like power, this album is both a tribute to eternal classics and an invitation to feel every shade of romance—tender, triumphant, and timeless.
