Janet Baker - But Death, alas! ... When I am laid in earth (Dido) Act 3 - Dido and Aeneas - Remastered 2022 lyrics

Artist: Janet Baker

album: Purcell: Dido and Aeneas Z. 626 by Dame Janet Baker


But Death, alas! I cannot shun;
Death must come when he is gone.
Great minds against themselves conspire,
And shun the cure they most desire.
DIDO
Thy hand, Belinda; darkness shades me:
On thy bosom let me rest:
More I would, but Death invades me:
Death is now a welcome guest.
When I am laid in earth,
May my wrongs create no trouble in thy breast;
Remember me! but ah! forget my fate.
With drooping wings ye cupids come,
And scatter roses on her tomb,
Soft and gentle as her heart;
Keep here your watch, and never part
