Chanson d'automne
Original Text
Representative French Poetry, ed. Victor E. Graham, 2nd edn. (Toronto: University of Toronto Press, 1965): 95. From Poèmes saturniens, 1867 (Paysages tristes, v).
1Les sanglots longs
2Des violons
3De l'automne
4Blessent mon cœur
5D'une langueur
6Monotone.
7Tout suffocant
8Et blême, quand
9Sonne l'heure,
10Je me souviens
11Des jours anciens
12Et je pleure;
13Et je m'en vais
14Au vent mauvais
15Qui m'emporte
16Deçà, delà,
17Pareil à la
18Feuille morte.
