Ombre de mon amant
Language: French (Français)
Ombre de mon amant, ombre toujours plaintive, Hélas ! que voulez-vous ! je meurs. Soyez un moment attentive Au funeste récit de mes vives douleurs. C'est sur cette fatale rive Que j'ay veu vostre sang couler avec mes pleurs. Rien ne peut arrester mon ame fugitive, Je cède à mes cruels malheurs. Ombre de mon amant, ombre toujours plaintive, Hélas ! que voulez-vous ? je meurs.
