Issé, pastorale héroïque

Opera by André Cardinal Destouches (c1672 - 1749)

[No title]

Language: French (Français) 
Ici les tendres oiseaux
Goûtent cent douceurs secrètes,
Et l'on entend ces côteaux 
Retentir des chansonnettes
Qu'ils apprennent aux échos.

Sur ce gazon les ruisseaux,
Murmurent leurs amourettes,
Et l'on voit jusqu'aux ormeaux,
Pour embrasser les fleurettes,
Pencher leurs jeunes rameaux.
