Solomon HWV 67 / Act 2 - Act 2 - "What says the other" - Andreas Scholl/Susan Bickley/Gabrieli/Paul McCreesh

Lyrics by：Anonymous

Composed by：George Frideric Händel

What says the other to th'imputed charge

Speak in thy turn and tell thy wrongs at large

I cannot varnish o'er my tongue

And colour fair the face of wrong

This babe is mine the womb of earth

Intomb'd conceals her little birth

Give me my child my smiling boy

To cheer my breast with new-born joy

Hear me women and the king regard

Who from his throne thus reads the just award

Each claims alike let both their portions share

Divide the babe thus each her part shall bear

Quick bring the faulchion and the infant smite

Nor further clamour for disputed right
