Ces lieux brillent deja d'une vive clarte. 
Depuis long temps j'ai vu naitre l'aurore; 
Le charmant objet que j'adore 
Devait la preceder dans ce bois ecarte. 
Mais je ne la vois point encore.

Rezitativ
Language: German (Deutsch)  after the French (Français) 
Jene Orte leuchteten schon in vibrierender Helligkeit.
Über eine lange Zeit beobachtete ich das Aufblühen des Morgenrots;
Das anziehende Objekt meiner Begierde
Sollte schon vor ihr in diesem versteckten Wald.
Aber bisher sehe ich sie noch nicht.
