Nocturne
Language: French (Français)
Ô fraîche Nuit,
Nuit transparente,
Mystère sans obscurité,
La vie est noire et dévorante
Ô fraîche Nuit,
Nuit transparente.
Donne-moi ta placidité.
Ô belle Nuit.
Nuit étoilée.
Vers moi tes regards sont baissées.
Éclaire mon âme troublée,
Ô belle Nuit,
Nuit étoilée,
Mets ton sourire en mes pensers.
Ô sainte Nuit,
Nuit taciturne,
Pleine de paix et de douceur.
Mon cœur bouillonne comme une urne.
Ô sainte Nuit,
Nuit taciturne,
Fais le silence dans mon coeur.
Ô grande Nuit,
Nuit solennelle,
En qui tout est délicieux,
Prends mon être entier sous ton aile.
Ô grande Nuit,
Nuit solennelle,
Verse le sommeil en mes yeux.

Nocturne
Language: English after the French (Français)
O fresh Night,
transparent night,
mystery without darkness,
life is black and devouring,
O fresh Night,
transparent Night.
Give me your placidity.
O beautiful night.
Starry Night.
Towards me your looks are lowered.
Illuminate my troubled soul,
o beautiful Night,
starry Night,
put your smile in my thoughts.
O Holy Night,
taciturn Night,
full of peace and sweetness.
My heart seethes like an urn.
O holy Night,
taciturn night,
make silence in my heart.
O great Night,
solemn Night,
in which everything is delicious,
take my whole being under your wing.
O great Night,
solemn Night,
pour sleep into my eyes.
