Tornate sereni
begli astri d'amore;

Soyez sereines

(Sung text translation for setting by F. Mendelssohn)

See original

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

Soyez sereines,
Beaux astres d'amour ;
L'espoir éclaire
Dans votre chagrin :
Si tristement vous vous détournez,
Vous me faites mourir.

Oh Dieu ! Vous le savez,
Vous seuls, à mon cœur,
Pouvez donner et retirer
La force et le courage.
