Le Retour(original) |
| Ulysse part la voile au vent |
| Vers Ithaque aux ondes chéries |
| Avec des bercements la vague roule et plie |
| Au large de son coeur la mer aux vastes eaux |
| Où son oeil suit les blancs oiseaux |
| Egrène au loin des pierreries |
| Ulysse part la voile au vent |
| Vers Ithaque aux ondes chéries! |
| Penché oeil grave et coeur battant |
| Sur le bec d’or de sa galère |
| Il se rit, quand le flot est noir, de sa colère |
| Car là-bas son cher fils pieux et fier attend |
| Après les combats éclatants |
| La victoire aux bras de son père |
| Il songe, oeil grave et coeur battant |
| Sur le bec d’or de sa galère |
| Ulysse part la voile au vent |
| Vers Ithaque aux ondes chéries |
| (translation) |
| Odysseus sets sail to the wind |
| Towards Ithaca with cherished waves |
| With rocking the wave rolls and bends |
| Beyond her heart the sea of vast waters |
| Where his eye follows the white birds |
| Scattered away from the gems |
| Odysseus sets sail to the wind |
| To Ithaca with cherished waves! |
| Bend down grave eye and beating heart |
| On the golden beak of his galley |
| He laughs, when the flood is black, at his anger |
| For there his dear pious and proud son awaits |
| After the fierce battles |
| Victory in the arms of his father |
| He thinks, grave eye and beating heart |
| On the golden beak of his galley |
| Odysseus sets sail to the wind |
| Towards Ithaca with cherished waves |
