Spring (Album)

by Laura Auer

/
1.
Mes vers fuiraient, doux et frêles, Vers votre jardin si beau, Si mes vers avaient des ailes, Comme l’oiseau. Ils voleraient, étincelles, Vers votre foyer qui rit, Si mes vers avaient des ailes, Comme l’esprit. Près de vous, purs et fidèles, Ils accourraient nuit et jour, Si mes vers avaient des ailes, Comme l’amour.

So this is love, mmm So this is love So this is what makes life divine I'm all aglow, mmm And now I know The key to all heaven is mine My heart has wings, mmm And I can fly I'll touch every star in the sky So this is the miracle That I've been dreaming of Mmm, mmm So this is love

Gualtier Maldè, nome di lui sia amato Ti scolpisci nel cor innamorato Caro nome che il mio cor festi primo palpitar Le delizie dell'amor mi dei sempre rammentar Col pensier il mio desir a te sempre volerà E fin l'ultimo sospir, caro nome, tuo sarà Col pensier il mio desir a te sempre volerà E fin l'ultimo mio sospir, caro nome, tuo sarà Col pensier il mio desir a te sempre volerà A te volerà, fin l'ultimo sospir, fin l'ultimo sospir Caro nome tuo sarà Caro nome tuo sarà, il mio desir a te ogn'ora volerà Fin l'ultimo sospiro tuo Caro l'ultimo sospir volerà Gualtier Maldè, Gualtier Maldè Caro nome che il mio cor festi primo palpitar E fin l'ultimo sospir varo nome tuo sarà

Quando men vo soletta per la via, La gente sosta e mira E la bellezza mia tutta ricerca in me Da capo a pie' Ed assaporo allor la bramosia Sottil, che da gli occhi traspira E dai palesi vezzi intender sa Alle occulte beltà Così l'effluvio del desìo tutta m'aggira, Felice mi fa E tu che sai, che memori e ti struggi Da me tanto rifuggi So ben Le angoscie tue non le vuoi dir, Ma ti senti morir
5.
Ah! Je veux vivre Dans ce rêve qui m'enivre; Ce jour encore, Douce flamme, Je te garde dans mon âme Comme un trésor! Cette ivresse De jeunesse Ne dure, hélas, qu'un jour! Puis vient l'heure Où l'on pleure, Le cœur cède à l'amour, Et le bonheur fuit sans retour. Ah! Je veux vivre Dans ce rêve qui m'enivre; Ce jour encore, Douce flamme, Je te garde dans mon âme Comme un trésor! Loin de l'hiver morose Laisse-moi sommeiller Avant de l'effeuiller. Ah! Douce flamme, Garde mon trésor Longtemps encore!

Moon river, wider than a mile I'm crossing you in style someday Oh, dream maker, you heartbreaker Wherever you're goin, I'm goin your way Two drifters, off to see the world There's such a lot of world to see We're after the same rainbow's end Waitin round the bend My huckleberry friend Moon river and me
7.
I'm as restless as a willow in a windstorm, I'm as jumpy as a puppet on a string, I'd say that I had spring fever, But I know it isn't spring. I'm as starry eyed and gravely discontented, Like a nightingale without a song to sing. Oh, why should I have spring fever, When it isn't even spring? I keep wishing I were somewhere else, Walking down a strange new street, Hearing words I have never never heard, From a man I've yet to meet. I'm as busy as a spider spinning daydreams, I'm as giddy as a baby on a swing, I haven't seen a crocus or a rosebud, Or a robin or a bluebird on the wing, But I feel so gay in a melancholy way, That it might as well be spring, It might as well be, might as well be, It might as well be spring.

about

For American singer and songwriter Laura Auer, returning to her classical roots was more than just a genre change; it was a life’s calling she realized during the pandemic, to revive the beautiful music of the classical golden age for today’s mainstream audiences. Auer’s stylised vocals redefine “bel canto” (beautiful voice) with her 21st century approach to French chanson, Italian opera, the Great American Songbook and even Rodgers & Hammerstein, on her four-part anticipated album series, "Seasons."
