Bizet: Carmen - La fleur que tu m'avais jetée(original) |
Ou, tu m’entendras! |
Je le veux! |
La fleur que tu m’avais jetee, |
Dans ma prison m’etait restee. |
Fletrie et seche, cette fleur |
Gardait toujours sa douce odeur; |
Et pendant des heures entieres, |
Sur mes yeux, fermant mes paupieres, |
De cette odeur je m’enivrais |
Et dans la nuit je te voyais! |
Je me prenais a te maudire, |
A te detester, a me dire: |
Pourquoi faut-il que le destin |
L’ait mise la sur mon chemin? |
Puis je m’accusais de blaspheme, |
Et je ne sentais en moi-meme, |
Je ne sentais qu’un seul desir, |
Un seul desir, un seul espoir: |
Te revoir, o Carmen, ou, te revoir! |
Car tu n’avais eu qu’a paraitre, |
Qu’a jeter un regard sur moi, |
Pour t’emparer de tout mon etre, |
O ma Carmen! |
Et j’etais une chose a toi |
Carmen, je t’aime! |
(translation) |
Or, you will hear me! |
I want it! |
The flower you threw at me, |
In my prison I was left. |
Withered and dried up, this flower |
Still kept its sweet smell; |
And for hours on end, |
On my eyes, closing my eyelids, |
Of this smell I got drunk |
And in the night I saw you! |
I caught myself cursing you, |
To hate you, to tell me: |
Why must fate |
Put her in my way? |
Then I accused myself of blasphemy, |
And I didn't feel within myself, |
I only felt one desire, |
One desire, one hope: |
See you again, o Carmen, or, see you again! |
Because you had only to appear, |
What to look at me, |
To take over my whole being, |
O my Carmen! |
And I was a thing of yours |
Carmen, I love you! |
