In una selva oscura

Language: French (Français)

Our translations: ENG

La lumière est plus pur et les fleurs sont plus douces, 
Le vent qui passe apporte des roses lointaines, 
Les pavés sous nos pieds deviennent de la mousse, 
Nous aspiront l'odeur des herbes et des fontaines. 

Un printemps nous enveloppe de son sourire, 
Entre nous et le bruit un rideau de verdure 
Tremble et chatoie, nous protège et soupire, 
Cependant que notre âme s'exalte et se rassure. 

O vie! Fais que ce léger rideau de verdure 
Devienne une forêt impénétrable aux hommes 
Où nos coeurs, enfermés dans sa fraicheur obscure, 
Soient oubliés du monde, sans plus penser au monde!

黑暗森林中

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

光线越是纯洁花朵越是芬芳，
吹来的风带着远方玫瑰新鲜，
脚下的铺路石变成苔藓一样，
我们呼吸着青草泉水的香甜。

围绕着我们的是春天的笑意，
分隔我们和噪音的是绿窗帘  
震动和闪烁，保护我们并叹息，
当我们的灵魂欣喜，感到心安。

生活！ 可能是柔软的绿色窗帘
变成人类不透风的森林密密
我们的心围在黑暗凉意里边，
可能被世界遗忘，而不被想起！
