O mio babino caro from the Opera Gianni Schichi by Giacomo Puccini
"My dear beloved" is the title and first line of the arietta Caro mio ben by both or one of the Giodani brothers, Giuseppe Tommasso Giovanni (December 19, 1759 - January 4, 1798) and Tommasso (1730 - February 24, 1806). The Italian lyrics run like this: Caro mio ben / Credimi almen / Senza di te languisce il cor / Il tuo fedel / Sospira ognor / Cessa, crudel! / Tanto rigor! / Caro mio ben / Credimi almen / Senza di te languisce il cor. The English translation will go like this: "My dear beloved / At least believe me / Without you languishes the heart (my heart) / Your faithful one / always sighs / Cease, cruel one! / So much harshness! / My dear beloved / Believe me at least / Without you my heart languishes."
I believe it was Miriam Gauci (courtesy of Naxos of America). She is a soprano from Malta.

Caro Mio Ben is NOT from an opera. You will probably find it in a great book called 24 Italian Art Songs and Arias. It is an Italian art song - a stand alone piece that should be performed with a similar technique to opera. Art songs are great for training and recitals. Good luck, and keep on singing!

"My dear beloved" is an English equivalent of the Italian phrase Caro mio ben. The masculine singular adjective, possessive, and noun most famously reference an arietta composed by both or one of two brothers, Giuseppe Tommaso Giovanni (December 19, 1751 - January 4, 1798) and Tommaso (1730 - February 24, 1836) Giordano. The pronunciation will be "KA-ro MEE-o ben" in Italian.
