Las, toi qui es de moi
Language: French (Français)
Our translations: ENG
Las, toi qui es de moi la quintessence, De qui l'humeur sur la mienne a puissance Ou de tes yeux serene mes douleurs, Ou bien les miens alambique en fontaine Pour étouffer le plus vif de ma peine Dans le ruisseau qui naîtra de mes pleurs.
