Chansonnier

Sing for me with your sweet voice

Play your music for it is sweeter still

My ears can only hear the sound you make

And quietly listen to your enchanting song

And in your eyes the brightest star I see

In its magnificence, in comparison

The universe shall pale

O what divine beauty commands such presence?

That even the sun and moon cower in humility

Your lips were born out of pure delight

A fatal kiss would not leave me unscathed

And with your every move the deeper I am possessed

Lost in languor in the gentleness of your touch

All that troubles me has been left in complete abandon

As I held your hand and felt its eternal warmth

And as you whisper sweet nothings to my ear's delight

My beating heart felt as if it came to a halt

O sing for me again these tunes so enthralling

That I may forever declare my devotion in its entirety

For no other creature on this earth shall dare question

This language of love with which I speak.
