Chanson d'automne

Les sanglots longs

Des violons

De l'automne

Blessent mon coeur

D'une langueur

Monotone.

Tout suffocant

Et blême, quand

Sonne l'heure,

Je me souviens

Des jours anciens

Et je pleure

Et je m'en vais

Au vent mauvais

Qui m'emporte

Deçà, delà,

Pareil à la

Feuille morte.

 Translation

The long laments

Of autumn's

Violins

Wound my heart

With a monotone

Fatigue.

 All suffocating

And pale, when

The hour chimes,

I remember

The old days

And I cry;

And I go

With the nasty wind

That is carrying me

Here and there

Similar to the

Falling leaf.

Paul VERLAINE (1844-1896)

 



Seventeen Nail Polishes

My favorite is No 145! I also have No 228 and 263!
I'm thinking of buying some new polishes!
I like No 79, 96, 104, 210, 211, 222, 241, 252, 254, 264 and 2721
Of course, I'm not gonna buy all of them! Only two.
But I just can't decide!
I really want one brownish nail polish, one beige and one grey/muddy.
What do you think?

Which nail polish is your favorite?

Raining and singing

It's raining outside. It's sooo depressing!
So, I decided to listen to some old, good, french music!

Du caractere rock

Mon rêve familier

Je fais souvent ce rêve étrange et pénétrant
D'une femme inconnue, et que j'aime, et qui m'aime,
Et qui n'est, chaque fois, ni tout à fait la même
Ni tout à fait une autre, et m'aime et me comprend.

Car elle me comprend, et mon coeur transparent
Pour elle seule, hélas! cesse d'être un problème
Pour elle seule, et les moiteurs de mon front blême,
Elle seule les sait rafraîchir, en pleurant.

Est-elle brune, blonde ou rousse? Je l'ignore.
Son nom? Je me souviens qu'il est doux et sonore,
Comme ceux des aimés que la vie exila.

Son regard est pareil au regard des statues,
Et, pour sa voix, lointaine, et calme, et grave, elle a
L'inflexion des voix chères qui se sont tues.

Paul Verlaine (Poèmes saturniens)
