Well, I don't know what's on your recording, but here is how the text actually appears in my Schirmer anthology (repeated text and all).
I have used an underline (_) to represent the elision marks:
Fron-di te-ne-re e bel-le del mio pla-ta-no_a-ma-to, per voi ri-splen-de_il fa-to; tuo-ni, lam-pi e pro-cel-le no v'ol-trag-gi-no mai la ca-ra pa-ce, ne` giun-ga_a pro-fa-nar-vi, au-stro ra-pa-ce!
Om-bra mai fu di ve-ge-ta-bi-le, ca-ra_ed a-ma-bi-le, so-a-ve piu`; om-bra mai fu di ve-ge-ta-bi-le, ca-ra_ed a-ma-bi-le, so-a-ve piu`, ca-ra_ed a-ma-bi-le, om-bra mai fu di ve-ge-ta-bi-le, ca-ra_ed a-ma-bi-le so-a-ve piu`, so-a-ve piu`.
