L'Amoureuse
Language: French (Français) 
D’un bonheur si j’avais le choix
Nul bien n’entrerait en balance.
Je voudrais soumettre à vos lois
Mon bonheur et mon espérance.
Que je dirais de bonne fois,
Je vous donne toute ma vie.
Le sort défend que je (vous) le dis.

    Ah, dites-le pour moi...

Je vous aime est un mot si doux,
Il naît d’un sentiment si tendre.
Heureux qui peut à vos genoux
Ou le répéter ou l’entendre.
Je le tais et ne sais pourquoi,
Quand tout auprès de vous l’inspire.
Je le sens et (je) n’ose le dire.
