Louise, Act 3: Depuis le jour où je me suis donnée
Gustave Charpentier
Since the day I gave myself
My destiny seems all in flower,
I seem to be dreaming beneath a fairy sky
My soul still enraptured by your very first kiss!
What a beautiful life!
My dream wasn't a dream!
Oh! I'm so happy!
Love spreads its wings over me!
In the garden of my heart
A new joy sings!
Everything resonates,
Everything rejoices at my triumph!
All around me everything is smiles,
Light and joy!
And I tremble deliciously
At the charming memory
Of the first day of love!
What a beautiful life!
Oh! I'm so happy! Too happy...
And I tremble deliciously
At the charming memory
Of the first day of love!
