There is a beautiful line in Puccini's opera "Turandot", very similar to
this, in Calaf's aria "Nessun dorma...":

   "Nessun dorma! Nessun dorma!
   Tu pure, o Principessa,
   nella tua fredda stanza,
   guardi le stelle che tremano
   d'amore e di speranza!
   Ma il mio mistero e chiuso in me,
   il nome mio nessun sapra!..." etc.
