Ballet des arts

Song Cycle by Jean-Baptiste Lully (1632 - 1687)

8. Récit de Thétis
 (Sung text)

Language: French (Français) 
Ne craignez point le naufrage,
Beaux yeux ! le vent ny l'orage
N'oseroient vous attaquer :
Hasardez-vous dessus l'onde,
Quelle rie ou quelle gronde,
Il n'est que de s'embarquer.

Sur les flots qui aplanissent
Mille vaisseaux s'enrichissent
Pour un qui vient à manquer :
Vous ne serez par grand chose
Tant que vous direz, je n'ose,
Il n'est que de s'embarquer.

Text Authorship:

  • by Isaac de Bensérade (c1613 - 1691)
