Affaire Rimbaud(original) |
| La jambe de Rimbaud |
| De retour à Marseille |
| Comme un affreux cargo |
| Chargé d'étrons vermeils |
| Dérive en immondices |
| A travers les égouts |
| La beauté fut assise |
| Un soir sur ce genou |
| Horreur Harar Arthur |
| Et tu l’as injuriée |
| Horreur Harar Arthur |
| Tu l’as trouvée amère, la beauté? |
| Une saison en enfer |
| Foudroie l’Abyssinie |
| O sorcière ô misère |
| O haine ô guerre voici |
| Le temps des assassins |
| Que tu sponsorisas |
| En livrant tous ces flingues |
| Au royaume de Choa |
| Horreur Harar Arthur |
| O Bentley ô châteaux |
| Horreur Harar Arthur |
| Quelle âme, Arthur, est sans défaut? |
| Les poètes aujourd’hui |
| Ont la farce plus tranquille |
| Quand ils chantent au profit |
| Des derniers Danâkil |
| Juste une affaire d’honneur |
| Mouillée de quelques larmes |
| C’est quand même un des leurs |
| Qui fournissait les armes |
| Horreur Harar Arthur |
| T’es vraiment d’outre-tombe |
| Horreur Harar Arthur |
| Et pas de commission |
| Horreur Harar Arthur |
| Et pas de cresson bleu |
| Horreur Harar Arthur |
| Où la lumière pleut |
| (translation) |
| Rimbaud's Leg |
| Back in Marseilles |
| Like an ugly freighter |
| Loaded with vermilion turds |
| Drift in filth |
| Through the sewers |
| Beauty was seated |
| One night on this knee |
| Horror Harar Arthur |
| And you insulted her |
| Horror Harar Arthur |
| Did you find her bitter, beauty? |
| A season in Hell |
| Strike down Abyssinia |
| O witch o misery |
| O hate o war behold |
| The Age of Assassins |
| that you sponsored |
| Delivering all these guns |
| In the Kingdom of Shoa |
| Horror Harar Arthur |
| O Bentley o castles |
| Horror Harar Arthur |
| What soul, Arthur, is without blemish? |
| Poets today |
| Have the quieter farce |
| When they sing for profit |
| Of the Last Danakils |
| Just a matter of honor |
| Wet with a few tears |
| It's still one of them |
| who provided the weapons |
| Horror Harar Arthur |
| You really are from beyond the grave |
| Horror Harar Arthur |
| And no commission |
| Horror Harar Arthur |
| And no blue watercress |
| Horror Harar Arthur |
| where the light rains |
