LAST TIME

LAST TIME

In the depths and the height I will dwell.

I will plunge in the terrible seas.

With the waves, I will loose myself free,

In a turmoil of wonder. Farewell !

To the deserts so beaten and blown,

Where I used to get lost like a child .

All the forest so sombre and wild ;

and the caverns and wharves,where I've grown .

For is flowerless land that I tread,

And the vast barren earth is called Death.

Burning sand, golden rains... My last breath

With the wind, will encounter the dead.

In the infinite realm of the stars,

Where the storms triumphantly bring the light

To the tempestuous waves of the night,

I will lay down my pride. Oh, so far !

Are the mutable fountains of time !

Where I drank the undercurrents of life,

Bitter liquour of trouble and strife;

sometimes sharpened by love so sublime.

Are the wheels of my Fortune still sound,

Or in circles they turn as they beat ?

Is the sound of their music so sweet,

While I fall one last time to the ground.
