O zürne nicht, wenn mein Begehren [Dunkel]1 aus seinen Grenzen bricht, Soll es uns selber nicht verzehren, Muß es heraus ans Licht! Fühlst ja, wie all mein Innres brandet, Und wenn herauf der Aufruhr bricht, Jäh über deinen Frieden strandet, Dann bebst du aber du zürnst mir nicht.

Ô ne sois pas fâchée si mon désir Ténébreux brise ses limites, Il ne va pas nous consumer, Au jour il doit apparaître ! Tu sens bien combien tout brûle en moi, Et si mon émoi vient briser en surface Et s'échouer sur ta tranquillité, Alors tu frissonnes mais tu ne m'en veux pas.
