Cinq poèmes de Baudelaire, L. 64: 3. Le jet d'eau

(original)
Tes beaux yeux sont las, pauvre amante!
Reste longtemps, sans les rouvrir
Dans cette pose nonchalante
Où t’a surprise le plaisir
Dans la cour le jet d’eau qui jase
Et ne se tait ni nuit ni jour
Entretient doucement l’extase
Où ce soir m’a plongé l’amour
La gerbe d’eau qui berce
Ses mille fleurs
Que la lune traverse
De ses pâleurs
Tombe comme une averse
De larges pleurs
Ainsi ton âme qu’incendie
L'éclair brûlant des voluptés
S'élance, rapide et hardie
Vers les vastes cieux enchantés
Puis, elle s'épanche, mourante
En un flot de triste langueur
Qui par une invisible pente
Descend jusqu’au fond de mon coeur
Ô toi, que la nuit rend si belle
Qu’il m’est doux, penché vers tes seins
D'écouter la plainte éternelle
Qui sanglote dans les bassins!
Lune, eau sonore, nuit bénie
Arbres qui frissonnez autour
Votre pure mélancolie
Est le miroir de mon amour
(translation)
Your beautiful eyes are tired, poor lover!
Stay a long time, without reopening them
In this nonchalant pose
Where did the pleasure surprise you
In the yard the jet of water that chatters
And is silent neither night nor day
Gently nurtures ecstasy
Where tonight has plunged me love
The sheaf of water that cradles
Its thousand flowers
Let the moon pass through
Of his pallor
Falls like a downpour
Wide crying
So your soul that burns
The burning flash of pleasures
Soars, quick and bold
To the vast enchanted skies
Then she pours out, dying
In a stream of sad languor
Who by an invisible slope
Get down to the bottom of my heart
O you, whom the night makes so beautiful
How sweet I am, leaning towards your breasts
To listen to the eternal lament
Who sobs in the basins!
Moon, sonorous water, blessed night
Trees that shiver around
Your pure melancholy
Is the mirror of my love
