Libretto/Lyrics/Text/Testo:

MARGUERITE
ouvre la fenêtre du pavillon et s'y appuie un moment en silence, la tête entre ses mains.
Il m'aime! ... quel trouble en mon cœur!
L'oiseau chante! ... le vent murmure! ...
Toutes les voix de la nature
Me redisent en chœur:
Il t'aime! ... - Ah! qu'il est doux de vivre! ...
Le ciel me sourit; ... l'air m'enivre! ...
Est-ce de plaisir et d'amour
Que la feuille tremble et palpite? ...
Demain? ... - Ah! presse ton retour,
Cher bien-aimé! ... Viens! ...

FAUST
s'élançant vers la fenêtre et saisissant la main de Marguerite.
Marguerite!

MARGUERITE
Elle reste un moment interdite, et laisse tomber sa tête sur l'épaule de Faust.
Ah!

MÉPHISTOPHÉLÈS
ouvre la port du jardin et sort en ricanant.
Hein! hein!

English Libretto or Translation:

Marguerite stands at the window.

MARGUERITE
He love me! My heart is in a turmoil!
The bird is singing, the wind rustling,
All the voices of Nature
Seem to chorus in my ear:
"He loves you!". Ah, how sweet life is!
Heaven smiles at me, the air intoxicates me!
Does the leaf shake and flutter
With pleasure and with love?
Tomorrow! Ah, hurry back,
Dear beloved! Come!

FAUST
rushes to the window and grasps Marguerite's hand
Marguerite!

MARGUERITE
Ah!...

MEPHISTOPHELES
Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha!
