Le mystère

(Sung text translation for setting by O. Nicolai)

See original

Language: French (Français) after the Italian (Italiano)

Si tranquille près de toi,
Ma dame, quelqu'un me voyait,
Ou il me croirait complètement heureux,
Ou guéri de l'amour ;

Mais pas toi, qui sais pourtant combien
Je combats et oppresse est mon cœur.
