Las! me faut-il (Anonymous, set by R. de Lassus) (The Lied and Art Song Texts Page: Texts and Translations to Lieder, mélodies, canzoni, and other classical vocal music)


Las! me faut-il tant de mal supporter,
Sans que personne en ayt la cognoissance,
Faisant semblant tousjours me contenter
Et si n'ay plus de mon bien esperance:
Ostez moy done mon dieu la souvenance
De ce malheur auquel ne puis pourvoir
Ou me donnez si longue patience,
Qu'autre que vous ne le puisse sçauoir.
