I Am Loved, Air de cour by Michel Lambert

Air de cour by Michel Lambert Themes LovePeriod 17th century

I am loved by the one I adore,
It is a charming secret that is known only to us:
Our pleasures are all the sweeter
Because everyone is unaware of them,
and because we deceive the jealous.

When respect makes me hide my passion
From the importunate witnesses of our sweet conversations,
Her eyes learn from mine
All the secrets of my soul;
And make known to me the secrets of hers.

Michel Lambert
