Récitatif
Sous un délicieux ombrage
Je me promenais l’autre jour;
Des sons nouveaux remplissaient le bocage,
Et ces doux sons inspiraient de l’amour.

Musette

L’aimable Lisette
Forme ces concerts,
Et sur sa musette
Exprime et répète
Les plus tendres airs.

Les grâces naïves,
Près d’elle captives,
Conduisent ses doigts.
Aux sons qu’elle tire;
L’amour, qui l’inspire,
Accords sa voix.

L’aimable Lisette...
