Martini: Plaisir D'Amour: "Plaisir D'Amour Ne Dure Qu'Un Moment" (Molto Lento)

The joys of love
Ere swiftly do depart
Its sorrows bitter
Through a lifetime prove
I gave up all for cruel Sylvia's love
Too soon I find another owns her heart
The joys of love
Ere swiftly do depart
Its sorrows bitter
Through a lifetime prove
Long as this brooklet shall softly onward flow
The meadow passing on its joyous way
Thee I will love ever, would Silvia say
Still flows the stream, but changed is Silvia now
The joys of love
Ere swiftly do depart
Its sorrows bitter
Through a lifetime prove
