Trois chansons de la petite Sirène
Chanson des sirènes
Dans le vent et dans le flot
dissous toi fragile écume
Dissous toi dans un sanglot
pauvre cœur rempli d'amertume
Prends ton vol dans le ciel bleu
vois la mort n'est pas cruelle.
Tu auras la paix de Dieu
viens à nous âme immortelle...
Song the sirens
In the wind and in the waves,
Dissolve, fragile foam,
Dissolve in a sob,
Poor heart filled with bitterness.
Soar up into the blue sky,
Behold – death is not cruel.
You shall have the peace of God,
Come to us, immortal soul.
