At This Return of the Season

Air de cour by Michel Lambert Collection Airs for one, II, III & IV partsThemes LovePeriod 17th century

At this return of the new season
All is renewed,
The Meadows, the Woods, all changes here;
But, O cruel sorrow:
My Iris changes too,
And I see each day
The flowers be born & her love die.

The fair Spring shows forth in this Empire,
The gentle Zephyr,
The Games, the Laughter & the Loves;
Must I sigh,
And languish forever,
Must I see each day,
The flowers be born & her love die.
