Lyrics Dido and Aeneas, Z. 626, Act 2: Duet. "Behold, Upon My Bending Spear" (Aeneas, Dido) - Michel Corboz




Behold, upon my bending spear
A monster's head stands bleeding
With gashes far exceeding those
Did Venus' hands man tear
The stars are crowded, hark, hark, how thunder
Rells the mountain of Sassanid
Haeste, haeste oodan, haeste, haeste, haeste, haeste
Oodan, haeste, haeste oodan
Le saban vin nashete, le saban vin nashete
Brow the spouters of Ganges
Haeste, haeste oodan, haeste, haeste, haeste, haeste
Oodan
Haeste, haeste oodan, haeste, haeste oodan
Le saban vin nashete, le saban vin nashete
Brow the spouters of Ganges
Haeste, haeste oodan, haeste, haeste, haeste, haeste
Oodan
