Venise (original)Venise (translation)
Comme surgie du fond des ges, immobile dans son voyage As if emerging from the depths of the ages, motionless in its journey
Mosaque de sang et d’or, Venise a pos le dcor. Mosaic of blood and gold, Venice set the scene.
Tout est pour l'њil dans ce thtre, les eaux noires et les murs d’albtre Everything is for the eye in this theatre, the black waters and the alabaster walls
Illusion, lumires et fontaines.Illusion, lights and fountains.
tout est l pour la mise en scne. everything is there for the staging.
Dans l’crin du soleil couchant, les palais et les golands In the horsehair of the setting sun, the palaces and the seagulls
Rivalisent de posie pour ouvrir le bal de la nuit. Compete in poetry to open the ball of the night.
l’heure ou les ombres se glissent, il flotte encore dans les ruelles the hour when the shadows slip, it still floats in the alleys
L’atmosphre trange et cruelle de Lucrce et des Mdicis. The strange and cruel atmosphere of Lucrce and the Medici.
Mais dj le soleil se lve, le rideau s’ouvre sur le rve But already the sun is rising, the curtain opens on the dream
Et c’est l que la ville explose de violet, de vert et de rose. And that's where the city explodes with purple, green and pink.
Sous les masques des farandoles, dans le glissement des gondoles Under the masks of the farandoles, in the sliding of the gondolas
La symphonie des mousselines, des guitares et des mandolines. The symphony of muslins, guitars and mandolins.
C’est la foule qui vous emporte au hasard des ponts et des portes It's the crowd that takes you randomly from bridges and gates
Ivre de liesse et de folie, mon Dieun que Venise est jolie. Drunk with jubilation and madness, my God, Venice is pretty.
Sous le ciel des balcons fleuris o l’on voit tourner les enseignes Under the sky of the flowered balconies where we see the signs turning
Et dans le dsordre qui rgne, Venise alors a du gnie. And in the disorder that reigns, Venice then has genius.
Puis le tableau reprend sa place, peu peu, la folie s’efface. Then the painting resumes its place, little by little, the madness fades away.
Juste une effluve de fanfare, quelques rires, un pas qui s’gare. Just a whiff of fanfare, a few laughs, a stray step.
On entend les pontons gmir, c’est l’hiver au pont des Soupirs. You can hear the pontoons moaning, it's winter at the Bridge of Sighs.
Un bateau s’en va vers les les, les heures s’grnent au Campanile. A boat is leaving for the islands, the hours are ticking away at the Campanile.
Venise, rien n’a chang, mme les sicles ont beau laisser Venice, nothing has changed, even the centuries have left
Des lzardes aux murs des maisons, jamais le temps n’a eu raison From lzardes to house walls, time has never been right
Ni des fastes du carnaval, ni des pierres ou des Bacchanales Neither carnival pomp, nor stones or Bacchanals
De Vrosne ou du Titien, ni des lustres en cristal ancien From Vrosne or Titian, nor chandeliers in ancient crystal
Et dj le soleil du rve, sur Venise, nouveau, se lve. And already the sun of the dream, over Venice, rises again.
nouveau, les faades explosent de violet, de vert et de rose. again, the facades explode in purple, green and pink.
Sous les masques des farandoles, dans le glissement des gondoles Under the masks of the farandoles, in the sliding of the gondolas
La symphonie des mousselines, des guitares et des mandolines. The symphony of muslins, guitars and mandolins.
C’est la foule qui vous emporte au hasard des ponts et des portes It's the crowd that takes you randomly from bridges and gates
Ivre de liesse et de folie, mon Dieu, que Venise est jolie. Drunk with jubilation and madness, my God, how pretty Venice is.
Sous le ciel des balcons fleuris o l’on voit tourner les enseignes Under the sky of the flowered balconies where we see the signs turning
Et dans le dsordre qui rgne, c’est l’enfer ou le paradis And in the disorder that reigns, it's hell or paradise
Qui vous mne au bout de la nuit, Venise alors a du gnie.Who takes you to the end of the night, Venice then has genius.
