Yup! I totally agree with that and this is also my view on the song and personal interpretation, but allow me to add that many interpretations are possible, you can bring a melancholic/serious tone to it as long as you make sense of it :) Cecilia Bartoli does a more heavy version and I don't have any doubt that she understands the lyrics..
Thank you for your lovely comments. This was from my first year recital last year. My name is Erin Holmes and I am a Soprano from Adelaide, Australia. I love this piece, so much fun to perform.
My teacher told me I’m singing this for solo and ensemble, and I’ve been practicing for the past 25 minutes, and you’ve already helped so much! Thank you!!

Oh my, I finally found the song I learned in voice lessons as a teenager from my Italian voice teacher. I remember the entire first verse even though I had no idea what it meant. She does a great job with it!
ENGLISH (I’m doing this for my districts solo! Hopefully get into state!) If you love me, if you sigh for me, gentle shepherd, your pain hurts me, yet I delight in your love. But if you think that I must return my love only to you, then, shepherd boy, you are easily deceived. A beautiful purple rose Silvia will choose today - because of its thorns, she will despise it tomorrow. But men's advice I will not follow. Just because I love the lily, I will not despise the other flowers.
I'm italian. It's not Pergolesi, but an Alessandro Parisotti's prank (XIX century). A perfect imitation of a XVIII's aria. Parisotti was probably gay. In the the text a young man, not a woman, spoke to a shepherd who loves him!
I'm a contralto and like to sing this too. I change soletto to soletta, and from research I did I believe the text was older, if not the music, and it should have been Silvio not Silvia, because it's talking about what men typically do, then the singer says they won't follow men's advice/example. The image of choosing a beautiful rose also conventionally fits more logically with a woman.
I find it strange that the singer’s name is often not mentioned in RUclips videos. There are hundreds of songs and arias on this platform but the the thing that sets them apart from each other is how they are sung and who they are sung by. This girl is lovely, who is she? She deserves the credit.
Se você me ama, se você suspirar Só para mim, pastor gentil, Eu tenho dor de seus mártires, Me delicio no seu amor, Mas se você pensa que sozinho Eu devo te amar de novo, Pastorzinho, você está sujeito Para te enganar facilmente. Linda rosa roxa Hoje Silvia vai escolher, Com a desculpa do plug Doman então irá desprezá-la. Mas o conselho dos homens Eu por mim não vou seguir. Não porque eu gosto do lírio As outras flores eu desprezarei.

Finally, someone who actually knows the meaning of the lyrics. Great sass - this isn't a melancholy song, and that was conveyed very well!
Yes :-) This is why this is my favourite version. It's a light, teasing song not solemn for goodness sake.
My audition piece in college!
Yes! You are absolutely correct!

What's her name??
i love how she expressed the song with her body and face! just what i need for solo and ensemble!
I love how this song is just a woman not even trying to let a man down easy. Nicely done.
The best version I've found of this song so far. Stunning.
Excelente!! Quién es la cantante??? Muchas gracias!
I agree!
i’ve watched this about 80 times to help me learn it for my college auditions. thank you for such a beautiful and well articulated performance!
Thank you for your kind comments; all the best with your auditions! You've done the hard work, now just have fun with it! :)
Thank you for your lovely comments. This was from my first year recital last year. My name is Erin Holmes and I am a Soprano from Adelaide, Australia.

Ee15 amazing!
Waouh !!! I had an audition with this song. I really like your voice and performance. You did it very well. Blessings
I’m going to sing this for a recital, and I’m using you for inspiration! You have such a gorgeous tone!
You conveyed very well what the song meant! Congratulations! Amazing!
Hola Erin!!...nunca escuché a alguien tan perfecta cantando esta canción, felicitaciones!!
This has so much more personality than the other versions I've listened to
My teacher told me I’m singing this for solo and ensemble, and I’ve been practicing for the past 25 minutes, and you’ve already helped so much! Thank you!!
Se tu m'ami, se tu sospiri
Sol per me, gentil pastor
Ho dolor dei tuoi martiri
Ho diletto del tuo amor
Ma se pensi che soletto
Io ti debba riamar
Pastorello, sei soggetto
Facilmente a t'ingannar
Pastorello, sei soggetto
Facilmente a t'ingannar
Facilmente a t'ingannar
Bella rosa porporina
Oggi Silvia sceglierà
Con la scusa della spina
Doman poi la sprezzerà
Doman poi la sprezzerà
Ma degli uomini il consiglio
Io per me non seguirò
Non perché mi piace il giglio
Gli altri fiori sprezzerò
Se tu m'ami, se tu sospiri
Sol per me, gentil pastor
Ho dolor de' tuoi martiri
Ho diletto del tuo amor
Ma se pensi che soletto
Io ti debba riamar
Pastorello, sei soggetto
Facilmente a t'ingannar
Pastorello, sei soggetto
Facilmente a t'ingannar
Facilmente a t'ingannar
Love her playful singing .. very joyous and free!!
A beautiful, wonderful French girl sang this to me once. It captivated me. I had never heard opera in person. I’ll never forget.
The best version I’ve found! Beautiful voice and great interpretation of the song!!
Oh my, I finally found the song I learned in voice lessons as a teenager from my Italian voice teacher. I remember the entire first verse even though I had no idea what it meant. She does a great job with it!
Love her clear voice!!!
My toxic trait is thinking I can sound like this without any practice 😅 beautifully done! Best performance I’ve seen so far!!
I love how connected you are to the text! Brava! Beautiful voice!!!!!
ENGLISH (I’m doing this for my districts solo! Hopefully get into state!)
If you love me, if you
sigh for me, gentle shepherd,
your pain hurts me,
yet I delight in your love.
But if you think that
I must return my love only to you,
then, shepherd boy, you are
easily deceived.
A beautiful purple rose
Silvia will choose today -
because of its thorns,
she will despise it tomorrow.
But men's advice
I will not follow.
Just because I love the lily,
I will not despise the other flowers.
Love your acting, it really shows that you know the meaning of the song and how it should be delivered to the audience. You inspired me a lot!
Sehr schön vorgetragen...lebendig und leicht.
Finally found the perfect song for solo and ensemble!
Such a fun performance, and such a light, lovely tone! Brava!
I love your expressions
You have a beautiful voice and your expressions are so entertaining and lovely!
voice is nice.. i could say this girl is talented. applause 👏👏
I use this to practice. Thanks!
Absolutely love the way you preform this!! The expressions, voice, body language is just spectacular!!! AMAZING JOB🤩🥰🎵
This is such a great performance!!!! Everything about it made it so good and it is helping me so much with my solo and ensemble... thank you so much!
OMG pretty Voice 🤩🙌🤩

Неожиданный оборот событий...🧐🤔

This girl is lovely, who is she? She deserves the credit.
Тут в комментах сформировалось единодушное мнение, что она одна передала подлинное содержание песни. Я тоже так считаю.
Great fun fresh rendering 🤩
So lovely!
You told me about it so I had to look it up. Well done!
Excellent!!!! Congratulations.
OMFG, SO FUCKING BEAUTIFUL, your interpretation is the best that I've seen,
Thank you!!!! Amazing 🤩
Прекрасное исполнение!!!
S t u n n i n g. Great job!
Perfect ✨💗✨💗
素晴らしい❢表情も豊かで感動しました。でも、そこ教会ですよね？？
Bravo!
Beautiful ♥️♥️♥️
Wonderful!
lovely
I love this song! I'm thinking about singing this for a high school music competition. What key is this in?
I believe that this is in Bb major. That is they key I sing in for this song and I use this video to practice.
Never mind, I am not sure anymore, sorry.
Try singing it in Bb and if it is too high or low then just adjust the key.
it’s in D minor-same solfege as Bb major
I think it is in A flat major, that’s the key my sheet music is in.
Sensacional
Majestic voice. The mannerisms could be simplified though.
what key did she sing it in?
Здорово:))

The voice is wanderful!! I would only like less theatricality: pauses, slowdowns .... Music loses because of this. and the music here is brilliant!
