This is what happens when you don't bring your own music from home. Do you have the alternate first verse text for Ah! non giunge?

is this it? i don't know what is usually done and what is 'alternate'
i found this by typing the aria title in google... try it yourself. you'll probably be able to find what you're looking for with a little digging.

Ah,non credea mirarti
si presto estinto, o fiore;
passasti al par d'amore,
che un giorno sol(o) duro.

Potria novel vigore
il pianto mio recarti
ma ravvivar l'amore
il pianto mio, ah no, non puo.

Ah, non giunge uman pensiero
al contento ond'io son piena:
a miei sensi io credo appena;
tu m'affida o mio tesor.

Ah, mi abbraccia, e sempre insieme,
sempre uniti in una speme,
della terra, in cui viviamo
ci formiamo un ciel d'amor.

What you found was the text as printed in every edition you purchase. The three recordings I've dug up here trying to find it use that text. It is not, however, the text that is heard ont he stage of the Staatsoper. I think a friend here might have it.
