Ce n'est plus le poids de ma chaine
qui me fait pousser des soupirs.
La seule attente des plaisirs
fait a present toute ma peine!
Attends-tu pour payer ma flamme,
Amour. Que je sois plus epris?
Tu connais l'ardeur de mon âme,
En peux-tu retarder le prix?

Lively song
Language: English after the French (Français)
It is not the weight of my chains
That makes me sigh mournfully,
Just the expectation of pleasures
To come is paining me.
Do you yearn to fuel my fire,
Love? To make me love you even more?
You know the the fervence of my soul,
And still you can hold back fulfillment?
