Récitatif
Language: French (Français)
Available translation(s): ENG GER
Les oiseaux d'alentour
chantent dans ce bocage,
et je connois à leur ramage
que rien ne manque plus
au bonheur de leurs feux.
Ils goûtent avant moi
les fruits de la constance;
Peut-être mieux traités,
sont-ils plus amoureux.

Rezitativ
Language: German (Deutsch)  after the French (Français)
Die Vögel ringsumher
Singen in jenem Hain,
und an ihrem Gezwitscher erkenne ich
das ihrer Lebensfreude
keine Gefahr droht.
Sei genießen noch vor mir
Die Früchte der Beständigkeit;
Vielleicht sind sie besser
vorgebildet für die Liebe.
