Pleurs d'or

(Sung text for setting by G. Fauré)

See base text

Language: French (Français)

Our translations: CAT CHI ENG GER

Larmes aux fleurs suspendues,
Larmes de sources perdues
Aux mousses des rochers creux ;

Larmes d'automne épandues,
Larmes de cor entendues
Dans les grands bois douloureux ;

Larmes des cloches latines,
Carmélites, Feuillantines...
Voix des beffrois en ferveur ;

 ... 

Larmes des nuits étoilées, 
Larmes des flûtes voilées 
Au bleu du parc endormi ;

Larmes aux grands cils perlées,
Larmes d'amante coulées 
Jusqu'a l'âme de l'ami ;

Larmes d'extase, éplorement délicieux,
Tombez des nuits ! Tombez des fleurs ! Tombez des yeux !

泪自花上下垂，
涸泉之泪
在洞岩青苔上；

秋日泪雨纷飞，
听到号角之泪
来自森林皆悲伤；

泪自拉丁钟声，
卡美里，费扬廷
钟楼声音带热情；

 ... 

泪撒夜色星光，
泪伴笛悠扬
沉睡之园忧郁长；

珠泪长睫之上，
情人泪流长
直到友人心房。

喜之滴，多么优雅漂亮，
夜幕降临！鲜花凋谢！眼睛合上！
