When I am Laid
Dido and Aeneas Z626 (1688)
keyboard/voice
(P. De Matthaeis)
Recitative
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.
Aria
When I am laid, am laid in earth,
May my wrongs create
No trouble, no trouble in thy breast;
Remember me, remember me, but ah!
Forget my fate.
Remember me, but ah! forget my fate.
