Lyrics
Votre âme est un paysage choisi
Que vont charmant masques et bergamasques
Jouant du luth et dansant et quasi
Tristes sous leurs déguisements fantasques.
Tout en chantant sur le mode mineur
L’amour vainqueur et la vie opportune,
Ils n’ont pas l’air de croire à leur bonheur
Et leur chanson se mêle au clair de lune,
Au calme clair de lune triste et beau,
Qui fait rêver les oiseaux dans les arbres
Et sangloter d’extase les jets d’eau,
Les grands jets d’eau sveltes parmi les marbres
Parmi les marbres.
Lyrics translation
Your soul is a chosen landscape
What are charming masks and bergamasks
Playing lute and dancing and quasi
Sad under their whimsical disguises.
While singing on the minor mode
Winning Love and timely life,
They don't seem to believe in their happiness
And their song mixes in the moonlight,
Calm Moonlight sad and beautiful,
That makes birds dream in trees
And sob with ecstasy the jets of water,
The large slender water jets among the marbles
Among the marbles.
