L'honestà negli amori, is a dramma per musica in 3 acts by composer Alessandro Scarlatti.

[1][2] The opera was performed again in 1682 in Acquaviva delle Fonti at the Palazzo De Mari with Acquaviva laureata, a serenata composed by Giovanni Cesare Netti.

[3] Though the opera is obscure today, its aria "Già il sole dal Gange", or "The Sun from the Orient", has achieved some popularity.

The aria has been recorded by several notable opera singers, including Cecilia Bartoli and Luciano Pavarotti.

[citation needed] In the opera, the song is sung by the character of Saldino, a page boy, who is admiring the sunrise in Algeria.
