from Così fan tutte by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart Soave Sia Il Vento Lyrics

Nick, Jo, and Tsakane sing this famous and wonderfully evocative trio, where two sisters pray for calm seas and gentle breezes as their lovers sail away to war.

Soave sia il vento
Tranquilla sia l'onda
Ed ogni elemento
Benigno risponda
Ai nostri desir
