Oh! Quand Je Dors Lyrics

Artist: Andrea Bocelli
Album: Sentimento

Text by Vicomte Victor Marie Hugo
Music by Franz Liszt

Oh! quand je dors, viens auprÃ¨s de ma couche,
comme Ã PÃ©trarque apparaissait Laura,
Et qu'en passant ton haleine me touche...
Soudain ma bouche
S'entr'ouvrira!

Sur mon front morne oÃ¹ peut-Ãªtre s'achÃ¨ve
Un songe noir qui trop longtemps dura,
Que ton regard comme un astre se lÃ¨ve...
Soudain mon rÃªve
Rayonnera!
Rayonnera!

Puis sur ma lÃ¨vre oÃ¹ voltige une flamme,
Ã‰clair d'amour que Dieu mÃªme Ã©pura,
Pose un baiser, et d'ange deviens femme...
Soudain mon Ã¢me
S'Ã©veillera!
S'Ã©veillera!

Oh viens, comme Ã PÃ©trarque apparaissait Laura!

Oh! When I Sleep

Oh, when I sleep, approach my bed,
as Laura appeared to Petrach;
and when in passing, your breath touches me...
suddenly my lips
will part!

On my glum face, where perhaps is ending
a dark dream which lasted too long,
as your glance like a star arises...
suddenly my dream
will become radiant!

Then on my lips, where a flame is fluttering,
a flash of love that God has kept pure,
place a kiss, and from an angel, become a woman...
suddenly my soul
will be awakened!
