"E lucevan le stelle" is an aria from Giacomo Puccini's opera "Tosca." In this poignant aria, Mario Cavaradossi is imprisoned, awaiting his execution. There, he sings one last time about his love for Tosca. He sings of the memories of tender touches, her scent, and the smell of her skin, and how these memories gradually fade and move ever further into the unreachable distance—similar to the twinkling stars in the night sky.
