J. S. Bach - Aria & Gavotte from Cantata, Weichet nur, betrübte Schatten BWV 202

Nancy Argenta, soprano
with Ensemble Sonnerie


(Aria)
Sich üben im Lieben,
in Scherzen sich herzen
ist besser als Florens vergängliche Lust.
Hier quellen die Wellen,
hier lachen und wachen
die siegenden Palmen auf Lippen und Brust.

To be constant in love's actions
and to rejoice with a light heart
is better than to enjoy Spring's transient fever.
Here the waves of love well up,
here the signs of victory
laugh joyously, and stand guard over the lips and the heart.


(Gavotte) from 4:10
Sehet in Zufriedenheit
tausend helle Wohlfahrtstage,
Daß bald bei der Folgezeit
eure Liebe Blumen trage!

Behold in calm contentment
a thousand fair and prosperous days,
and it will soon happen
that your love shall bear flowers!
