L'aube naît, et ta porte est close !
Language: French (Français)
L'aube naît, et ta porte est close ! [Ma]1 belle, pourquoi sommeiller ? À l'heure où s'éveille la rose Ne vas-tu pas te réveiller ? Ô ma charmante, Écoute ici L'amant qui chante Et pleure aussi ! Toute frappe à ta porte bénie. L'aurore dit : Je suis le jour ! L'oiseau dit : Je suis l'harmonie ! Et [mon cœur]2 dit : Je suis l'amour! Ô ma charmante, Écoute ici L'amant qui chante Et pleure aussi ! Je t'adore, ange, [et]3 t'aime, femme. Dieu qui [pour]4 toi m'a complété A fait mon amour [par]5 ton âme, Et mon regard pour ta beauté ! Ô ma charmante, Écoute ici L'amant qui chante Et pleure aussi !

Дверь на замке зорька проснулась
Language: Russian (Русский) after the French (Français)
Дверь на замке зорька проснулась Одна ты объята дремой Вот и роза ут сна встрепенулась. Время проснуться ангел мой О дорогая Другу внемли Здесь он рыдая Молит любви. Рыдает и молит любви. Взор твой все собой оживляет Зорька встает свет дивный льёт Птичек рой тебя воспевает И лишь тобой Душа живёт. О дорогая Другу внемли Здесь он рыдая Молит любви. Рыдает и молит любви. Ангел земной тебя обожая Я возрождён любовью одной. В душе моей Бог любовь возжигая Очи мне дал любоваться тобой. О дорогая Мне ты внемли Друг твой рыдая Молит любви Рыдает друг твой и молит любви.
