Звенела музыка в саду
Таким невыразимым горем.
Свежо и остро пахли морем
На блюде устрицы во льду.
Он мне сказал: «Я верный друг!»
И моего коснулся платья.
Так не похожи на объятья
Прикосновенья этих рук.
...
А скорбных скрипок голоса
Поют за стелющимся дымом:
«Благослови же небеса -
Ты в первый раз одна с любимым.»

La musique résonnait dans le jardin
Avec un chagrin si indicible.
Une odeur fraîche et insistante de la mer,
Sur un plateau des huîtres dans de la glace.
Il m'a dit : « Je suis un ami fidèle ! »
Et il a touché ma robe.
Comme il ne ressemble pas à une étreinte
Ce contact de ses mains.
...
Tandis que la voix lugubre d'un violon
Chante derrière une brume qui s'étend :
«Bénis donc le ciel --
Pour la première fois tu es seule avec ton bien-aimé. »
