I Want to Die for Your Beauties, Mistress, Poem by Pierre De Ronsard

Poem by Pierre De Ronsard Collection First Book of LovesThemes LovePeriod 16th century

I want to die for your beauties, Mistress,
For that beautiful eye, which took me in its snare,
For that sweet laugh, for that kiss full
Of amber and musk, a kiss of a Goddess.

I want to die for that blond tress,
For the plumpness of that too chaste breast,
For the rigor of that gentle hand,
Which all at once heals me and wounds me.

I want to die for the brown of that complexion,
For that voice, whose beautiful song grips
My heart so strongly that it alone disposes of it.

I want to die in amorous combats,
Breathing out the love that I carry enclosed in my blood,
A whole night in the midst of your arms.

Pierre de Ronsard
