 ... 

Las! où fuis-tu ?  atten encore un peu :
Que vainement je me soye repeu
De ce beau sein dont l'appétit me ronge,

Et de ces flancs qui me font trespasser ;
Sinon d'effet, souffre au moins que par songe
Toute une nuit je les puisse embrasser.

Holy Angel, who heals my wounds

(Sung text translation for setting by J. Castro)

See original

Language: English after the French (Français)

 ... 

Ah, where are you rushing to? Stay just a little
That vainly I may look my fill
On that lovely figure, hunger for which gnaws me,

And that beautiful figure which makes me die.
If not in reality, at least let me in dreams
Kiss them a whole night long.
