Quand au matin ma déesse s'habille
Language: French (Français)
Our translations: CHI ENG
Quand au matin ma Déesse s'habille,
D'un riche or crespe ombrageant ses talons,
Et que les rets de ses beaux cheveux blons
En cent façons [en-onde]1 et entortille :
Je l'accompare à l'escumiere fille
Qui or'pignant les siens jaunement lons,
Or' les frizant en mille crespillons,
Nageoit à bord dedans une coquille.
De femme humaine encore ne [sont]2 pas
Son ris, son front, ses gestes, ne ses pas,
Ne de ses yeux l'une et l'autre estincelle.
Rocs, eaux, ne bois, ne [logent]3 point en eux
Nymphe qui ait si follastres cheveux,
Ny l'oeil si beau, ny la bouche si belle.

当我的女神在清晨梳妆
Language: Chinese (中文)  after the French (Français)
当我的女神在清晨梳妆
华丽卷曲金发遮蔽脚跟,
当她挥舞并扭动着如云
美丽的金发翻动着波浪;
然后把她比作泡沫女郎
梳理着自己长长的金发,
现在把它弄成蓬松如纱
在贝壳里渡过宽广海洋。
她的微笑、额头、手势、步伐
她双眼中那闪烁的光华,
不再是女性生活在凡间。
如此迷人头发的女仙人
有如此美的眼睛和嘴唇,
岩石、水和树林没有家园。
