Puisqu'ici‑bas toute âme
 (Sung text for setting by G. Fauré)
 See original
Language: French (Français) 
Our translations:  CAT ENG ENG GER SPA
Puisqu'ici-bas toute âme
Donne à quelqu'un
Sa musique, sa flamme,
Ou son parfum ;

Puisqu'ici-bas chaque chose
Donne toujours
Son épine ou sa rose
A ses amours ;

Puis qu'Avril donne aux chênes
Un bruit charmant ;
Que la nuit donne aux peines
L'oubli dormant.

 ... 

Puisque, lorsqu'elle arrive
S'y reposer,
L'onde amère à la rive
Donne un baiser ;

Je te donne, à cette heure,
Penché sur toi,
La chose la meilleure
Que j'ai en moi !

Reçois donc ma pensée,
Triste d'ailleurs,
Qui, comme une rosée,
T'arrive en pleurs !

Reçois mes voeux sans nombre,
O mes amours !
Reçois la flamme ou l'ombre
De tous mes jours !

Mes transports pleins d'ivresses,
Pur de soupçons,
Et toutes les caresses
De mes chansons !

 ... 

Ma muse, que les heures
Bercent rêvant
Qui, pleurant quand tu pleures,
Pleure souvent !

Reçois, mon bien céleste,
O ma beauté,
Mon cœur, dont rien ne reste,
L'amour ôté !

每个灵魂下面/ 给予对方
 (Sung text translation for setting by G. Fauré)
 See original
Language: German (Deutsch)  after the French (Français) 
每个灵魂下面
给予对方
以音乐和火焰,
或者芳香;

这里一切东西
奉献常存,
把玫瑰或荆棘
给爱的人;

自从四月给橡
迷人声音;
夜晚带来悲伤
遗忘睡沉 。

 ... 

波涛到达终点
休息时分,
浪花给予了岸
一记深吻;

就在这个时机
俯在你身,
我最好的东西
至真至纯!

接收我的思想
尽管忧悒,
如同露水一样,
泪滴向你!

接受我的愿景,
我的爱人!
接收火焰阴影
于我光阴!

带来沉醉无度,
还有怀疑,
这所有的爱抚
在我歌里,

 ... 

女神,时间留驻
平静梦中
你哭时她就哭,
常哭不停!

接受我的至善,
我的美人,
我心除了爱恋,
荡然无存!
