Гендель Георг Фридрих - The Rapture - текст песни (слова)

1. When I survey Clarinda's Charms, 
 Folded within my circling Arms, 
 What endless Pleasures move along, 
 Serenely soft, and sweetly strong; 
 Every Smile invites to Love; 
 Balmy Kisses, 
 Am'rous Blisses, 
 Every rising Charm improve. 
 
 2. Immortal Bliss, that ne'r will cloy,
 Always attends her Angel Form;
 Softest Repose, and blooming Joy
 In her conspire the Soul to charm:
 All that can Joy or Love create;
 Beauteous Blessing,
 Past expressing,
 Round the tender Fair One wait.
 
 3. Love on her Breast has fixt his Throne, 
 And Cupid revels in her Eyes; 
 Who can the Charmer's Power disown 
 When in each Glance an Arrow flies? 
 Yet when wounded we feel no Pain; 
 No, 'tis Pleasure 
 Above Measure, 
 Raptures flow in every Vein.
