Angoisse - Stéphane Mallarmé




 Je ne viens pas ce soir vaincre ton corps, ô bête

En qui vont les péchés d’un peuple, ni creuser

Dans tes cheveux impurs une triste tempête

Sous l’incurable ennui que verse mon baiser:


Je demande à ton lit le lourd sommeil sans songes

Planant sous les rideaux inconnus du remords,

Et que tu peux goûter après tes noirs mensonges,

Toi qui sur le néant en sais plus que les morts:


Car le Vice, rongeant ma native noblesse,

M’a comme toi marqué de sa stérilité,

Mais tandis que ton sein de pierre est habité


Par un coeur que la dent d’aucun crime ne blesse,

Je fuis, pâle, défait, hanté par mon linceul,

Ayant peur de mourir lorsque je couche seul.


Stéphane Mallarmé

Lucio Dalla Greatest Hits Full Album - Canzoni Italiana - 15 Migliori Ca...

 



Little Lamb who made thee 

         Dost thou know who made thee 

Gave thee life and bid thee feed. 

By the stream and o’er the mead;

Gave thee clothing of delight,

Softest clothing wooly bright;

Gave thee such a tender voice,

Making all the vales rejoice! 

         Little Lamb who made thee 

         Dost thou know who made thee 


         Little Lamb I’ll tell thee,

         Little Lamb I’ll tell thee!

He is called by thy name,

For he calls himself a Lamb: 

He is meek and he is mild, 

He became a little child: 

I a child and thou a lamb, 

We are called by his name.

         Little Lamb God bless thee. 


Ποτέ δεν θα ξεχάσω την στιγμή που γεννήθηκε ένα αρνάκι μπροστά στα μάτια μου.

         Little Lamb God bless thee.
