Ah qu'il fait beau
Language: French (Français) 
Ah ! qu'il fait beau dans ce bocage !
Ah ! que le ciel donne un beau jour !
Le rossignol, sous ce tendre feuillage,
Chante aux échos son doux retour !
Ce beau séjour, ce doux ombrage,
Ce beau séjour nous invite à l'amour.

Ah ! qu'il est doux, près de Climène,
De pouvoir passer les instants !
Le tendre amour tous les jours me ramène
Il réunit nos cœurs constants !
Ce beau séjour, ce doux ombrage,
Ce beau séjour nous invite à l'amour.
