Air sérieux
 (Sung text for setting by F. Couperin)
 Matches base text
Language: French (Français)  after the Italian (Italiano) 
Doux liens de mon cœur
Aimables peines,
Charmantes chaînes,
De moment en moment
Redoublez mon tourment:
Un cœur exempt de nos tendres allarmes,
Ne ressentit jamais que de foibles douceurs;
C'est dans l'excès de ses rigueurs,
Que l'Amour a caché ses plus doux charmes.

Composition:

    Set to music by François Couperin (1668 - 1733), "Air sérieux", 1701 [ voice and basso continuo ]
