Il m’a dit: «Cette nuit, j’ai rêvé He said to me: “Last night I dreamed
J’avais ta chevelure autour de mon cou I had your hair around my neck
J’avais tes cheveux comme un collier noir I had your hair like a black necklace
Autour de ma nuque et sur ma poitrine Around my neck and on my chest
«Je les caressais, et c'étaient les miens; “I stroked them, and they were mine;
Et nous étions liés pour toujours ainsi And we were forever bound like this
Par la même chevelure, la bouche sur la bouche By the same hair, mouth to mouth
Ainsi que deux lauriers n’ont souvent qu’une racine As two laurels often have only one root
«Et peu à peu, il m’a semblé "And gradually it seemed to me
Tant nos membres étaient confondus So confounded were our members
Que je devenais toi-même That I was becoming you
Ou que tu entrais en moi comme mon songe.» Or that you entered me as my dream."
Quand il eut achevé When he had finished
Il mit doucement ses mains sur mes épaules He gently put his hands on my shoulders
Et il me regarda d’un regard si tendre And he looked at me with such a tender gaze
Que je baissai les yeux avec un frissonThat I looked down with a shiver
