En soupirant j'ai vu naître l'aurore
Language: French (Français) 
En soupirant j'ai vu naître l'aurore,
En soupirant, je vois venir le soir ;
Plus lentement il va couler encore ;
Ce soir, hélas ! je ne dois point te voir.

Pendant le cours de la longue journée,
Mon cœur ne bat de plaisir ni d'espoir ;
Hors le désir de la voir terminée,
Tout m'est égal... Je ne dois point te voir.

La nuit s'avance, et Diane amoureuse 
D'Endimion descend combler l'espoir.
Ô mon ami, Diane est trop heureuse 
Pour avancer l'heure où je dois te voir !

Heureux demain, si Vénus, que j'implore
D'un cœur brûlant n'abuse pas l'espoir !
Heureux demain, empresse-toi d'éclore !
Ô mon ami, demain je vais te voir !
