Douces larmes

Language: French (Français)

Our translations: CAT

Par tes baisers effacées,
Les larmes que j’ai versées
Rient à présent dans mes yeux !
Et maintenant que tu m’aimes,
Mes tourments, mes douleurs mêmes
Ont la doceur des a veux !

Tu remplis si bien mavie,
Que je demeure ravie
De ne rien voir que par toi !
Le pays qui nous rassemble,
Si triste et désert qu’il semble,
Est le paradis pour moi !

Oh! quel divin esclavage :
J’aborde sur le rivage,
Par ton printemps embaumé !
Depuis des mois je t’adore !
Et je t’aime plus encore
D’avoir souffert de t’aimer !

Dolces llàgrimes

Language: Catalan (Català) after the French (Français)

Esborrades pels teus petons,
Les llàgrimes que he vessat
Ara riuen als meus ulls!
I ara que m'estimes,
Els meus turments, àdhuc les meves penes
Tenen la dolçor del consentiment!

Omples la meva vida tan completament,
Que resto encantada
De no veure res més que tu!
El país que ens uneix,
Per molt trist i desolat que sembli,
És un paradís per a mi!

Oh! Quin diví esclavatge:
Arribo al ribatge,
en la teva primavera flairosa!
Fa mesos que t'adoro!
I t'estimo més encara
per haver sofert estimant-te!
