Exaucement

(Sung text for setting by G. Fauré)

See original

Language: French (Français)

Our translations: CAT DUT ENG GER

Alors qu'en tes mains de lumière
Tu poses ton front défaillant,
Que mon amour en ta prière
Vienne comme un exaucement.

Alors que la parole expire
Sur ta lèvre qui tremble encor,
Et s'adoucit en un sourire
De roses en des rayons d'or ;

 ... 

Que ton âme calme et muette,
Fée endormie au jardin clos,
En sa douce volonté faite
Trouve la joie et le repos.

Atorgament

(Sung text translation for setting by G. Fauré)

See original

Language: Catalan (Català) after the French (Français)

Quan a les teves mans de llum
poses el teu front defallent,
que el meu amor en la teva pregària
arribi com un atorgament.

Quan les paraules expiren
als teus llavis que tremolen encara,
i s’assuaugen en un somriure
de roses en raigs d’or;

 ... 

que la teva ànima, plàcida i muda,
fada adormida al jardí clos,
en la seva voluntat acomplerta
trobi la joia i el repòs.

Note: the text above is taken from stanzas 1-2,4 of the original text.
