《Purcell: King Arthur， or The British Worthy， Z.628 / Act 5 - 38. Fairest Isle (Venus)》歌词

[00:00:00] King Arthur: Fairest Isle (普赛尔：亚瑟王：最美的小岛) - Henry Purcell/Graham Abbott/Tasmanian Symphony Orchestra

[00:00:01] Composed by：Henry Purcell/George Frideric Handel

[00:01:22] Fairest isle all isles excelling

[00:01:29] Seat of pleasure and of love

[00:01:37] Venus here will choose her dwelling

[00:01:43] And forsake her Cyprian grove

[00:01:50] Cupid from his fav'rite nation

[00:01:57] Care and envy will remove

[00:02:04] Jealousy that poisons passion

[00:02:11] And despair that dies for love

[00:02:20] Gentle murmurs sweet complaining

[00:02:27] Sighs that blow the fire of love

[00:02:34] Soft repulses kind disdaining

[00:02:41] Shall be all the pains you prove

[00:02:48] Ev'ry swain shall pay his duty

[00:02:55] Grateful ev'ry nymph shall prove

[00:03:02] And as these excel in beauty

[00:03:09] Those shall be renown'd for love
