when i am laid
Recebi há dias esta prenda, pelo gmail, ou seja, esta ópera barroca de Henry Purcell: Dido e Eneias (1689). A famosíssima ária "When I am laid",curiosamente também foi interpretada por Jeff Buckley, num festival londrino ,em 1995.
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.
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.
