Purcell: When I Am Laid In Earth (Dido's Lament)

Текст песни Elin Manahan Thomas - Purcell: When I Am Laid In Earth (Dido's Lament)

Thy hand, belinda, darkness shades me.
On thy bosom let me rest.
More I would, but death invades me.
Death is now a welcome guest.

When I am laid in earth, may my wrongs create
No trouble in thy breast.
Remember me, but ah! forget my fate.
Remember me, but ah!
Forget my fate.
Remember me, remember me, but ah!
Forget my fate.
Remember me, but ah!
Forget my fate
