Chant du bonheur
Language: French (Français) 
Our translations:  ITA
Ô mon bonheur, ma vie,
Mon être tout entier, mon Dieu, mon univers!
Est-il auprès de toi quelque bien que j'envie?
Je te vois, tu souris, les cieux me sont ouverts!
L'ivresse de l'amour pour nous est trop brûlante,
Ce tendre abattement est plus délicieux.
Repose dans mes bras, repose cette tête charmante!
Viens! Viens! ô ma rêveuse amante,
Sur mon cœur éperdu. Viens clore tes beaux yeux!

Canto di felicità
Language: Italian (Italiano)  after the French (Français) 
O mia felicità, mia vita,
mio tutto, mio Dio, mio universo!
C'è forse più di te bene per me più caro?
Ti vedo, ti sorrido, mi si spalancano i cieli!
Arde troppo, per noi, l'ebbrezza dell'amore,
questo abbandono tenero più delizioso appare.
Riposa nel mio abbraccio, poggia il tuo incantevole viso!
Vieni, a me vieni! Mia fantastica amante,
sul mio cuore inebriato. Vieni e chiudi i tuoi occhi.
