Charles Cros: 2 Poèmes

C h a r l e s   C r o s

(1842-1888)

2  P o è m e s

 

Berceuse

Il y a une heure bête
Où il faut dormir.
Il y a aussi la fête
Où il faut jouir.

Mais quand tu penches la tête
Avec un soupir
Sur mon coeur, mon coeur s’arrête
Et je vais mourir…

Non ! ravi de tes mensonges,
O fille des loups,
Je m’endors noyé de songes

Entre tes genoux.
Après mon coeur que tu ronges
Que mangerons-nous ?

 

A tuer

Voici venir le printemps vague
Je veux être belle. Une bague
Attire à ma main ton baiser.

Aime-moi bien ! Aime-moi toute
Surtout jamais, jamais de doute.
Ta fureur ? Je vais l’apaiser.

J’ai mal fait. – Mais ne sois pas triste,
Enterre-moi sous la batiste.
Je meurs ! des coussins, des coussins !

A présent je serai bien sage
Tes bras autour de mon corsage
Et tes lèvres entre mes seins.

William Shakespeare: Sonnet 011

W i l l i a m   S h a k e s p e a r e

(1564-1616)

T H E   S O N N E T S


11

As fast as thou shalt wane so fast thou grow’st,

In one of thine, from that which thou departest,

And that fresh blood which youngly thou bestow’st,

Thou mayst call thine, when thou from youth convertest,

Herein lives wisdom, beauty, and increase,

Without this folly, age, and cold decay,

If all were minded so, the times should cease,

And threescore year would make the world away:

Let those whom nature hath not made for store,

Harsh, featureless, and rude, barrenly perish:

Look whom she best endowed, she gave thee more;

Which bounteous gift thou shouldst in bounty cherish:

She carved thee for her seal, and meant thereby,

Thou shouldst print more, not let that copy die.
