Siècle Pastoral(original) |
| On ignoroit dans leurs retraites |
| Les noirs chagrins, les vains désirs |
| Les espérances inquiètes |
| Les longs remords des courts plaisirs |
| L’intérêt au sein de la terre |
| N’avoit point ravi les métaux |
| Ni soufflé le feu de la guerre |
| Ni fait des chemins sur les eaux |
| Les pasteurs, Dans leur héritage |
| Coulant leurs jours jusqu’au tombeau |
| Ne connoissoient que le rivage |
| Qui les avoit vus au berceau |
| Tous dans d’innocentes délices |
| Unis par des noeuds pleins d’attraits |
| Passoient leur jeunesse sans vices |
| Et leur vieillesse sans regrets |
| La mort, qui pour nous a des ailes |
| Arrivoit lentement pour eux |
| Jamais de causes criminelles |
| Ne hâtoient ses coups douloureux… |
| (translation) |
| We ignored in their retreats |
| The black sorrows, the vain desires |
| Worried expectations |
| The long remorse of short pleasures |
| Interest within the land |
| Had not ravished the metals |
| Nor blew the fire of war |
| Nor made paths on the waters |
| Pastors, In Their Heritage |
| Flowing their days to the tomb |
| Only knew the shore |
| Who saw them in the crib |
| All in innocent delights |
| United by attractive knots |
| Spent their youth without vices |
| And their old age without regrets |
| Death, which for us has wings |
| Came slowly for them |
| Never criminal cases |
| Do not hasten his painful blows... |
