Bient t nous plongerons dans les froides t n bres	B
Adieu vive clart de nos t s trop courts	B
J'entends d j tomber avec des chocs fun bres	B
Le bois retentissant sur le pav des cours	B
	-
Tout l'hiver va rentrer dans mon tre col re	C
Haine frissons horreur labeur dur et forc	D
Et comme le soleil dans son enfer polaire	C
Mon coeur ne sera plus qu'un bloc rouge et glac	D
	-
J' coute en fr missant chaque b che qui tombe	E
L' chafaud qu'on b tit n'a pas d' cho plus sourd	F
Mon esprit est pareil la tour qui succombe	E
Sous les coups du b lier infatigable et lourd	F
	-
II me semble berc par ce choc monotone	G
Qu'on cloue en grande h te un cercueil quelque part	F
Pour qui C' tait hier l' t voici l'automne	G
Ce bruit myst rieux sonne comme un d part	F

J'aime de vos longs yeux la lumi re verd tre	C
Douce beaut mais tout aujourd'hui m'est amer Et rien ni votre amour ni le boudoir ni l' tre	C
Ne me vaut le soleil rayonnant sur la mer	C
	-
Et pourtant aimez moi tendre coeur soyez m re	C
M me pour un ingrat m me pour un m chant	F
Amante ou soeur soyez la douceur ph m re	C
D'un glorieux automne ou d'un soleil couchant	F

Courte t che La tombe attend elle est avide	F
Ah laissez moi mon front pos sur vos genoux	B
Go ter en regrettant l' t blanc et torride	F
De l'arri re saison le rayon jaune et doux	B

Song of Autumn	G
	-
	-
I	A
	-
Soon we shall plunge into the cold darkness	B
Farewell vivid brightness of our short lived summers	B
Already I hear the dismal sound of firewood	F
Falling with a clatter on the courtyard pavements	B
	-
All winter will possess my being wrath	H
Hate horror shivering hard forced labor	C
And like the sun in his polar Hades	B
My heart will be no more than a frozen red block	D
	-
All atremble I listen to each falling log	D
The building of a scaffold has no duller sound	F
My spirit resembles the tower which crumbles	B
Under the tireless blows of the battering ram	E
	-
It seems to me lulled by these monotonous shocks	B
That somewhere they're nailing a coffin in great haste	F
For whom Yesterday was summer here is autumn	G
That mysterious noise sounds like a departure	C
	-
	-
II	A
	-
I love the greenish light of your long eyes	B
Sweet beauty but today all to me is bitter	C
Nothing neither your love your boudoir nor your hearth	I
Is worth as much as the sunlight on the sea	B
	-
Yet love me tender heart be a mother	C
Even to an ingrate even to a scapegrace	B
Mistress or sister be the fleeting sweetness	B
Of a gorgeous autumn or of a setting sun	G
	-
Short task The tomb awaits it is avid	F
Ah let me with my head bowed on your knees	B
Taste the sweet yellow rays of the end of autumn	G
While I mourn for the white torrid summer	C

Song of Autumn	G
	-
I	A
	-
Soon into frozen shades like leaves we'll tumble	J
Adieu short summer's blaze that shone to mock	D
I hear already the funereal rumble	J
Of logs as on the paving stones they shock	D
	-
Winter will enter in my soul to dwell	K
Rage hate fear horror labour forced and dire	C
My heart will seem to sun that polar hell	K
A dim red frozen block devoid of fire	C
	-
Shuddering I hear the heavy thud of fuel	J
The building of a gallows sounds as good	F
My spirit like a tower reels to the cruel	J
Battering ram in every crash of wood	F
	-
The ceaseless echoes rock me and appal	J
They're nailing up a coffin I'll be bound	F
For whom Last night was Summer Here's the Fall	J
There booms a farewell volley in the sound	F
	-
	-
II	A
	-
I like die greenish light in your long eyes	B
Dear but today all things are sour to me	B
And naught your hearth your boudoir nor your sighs	B
Are worth the sun that glitters on the sea	B
	-
Yet love me tender heart as mothers cherish	L
A thankless wretch Lover or sister be	B
Ephemeral sweetness of the suns that perish	L
Or glory of the autumn swift to flee	B
	-
Brief task The charnel yawns in hunger horrid	F
Yet let me with my head upon your knees	B
Although I mourn the summer white and torrid	F
Taste these last yellow rays before they freeze	B

I	A
	-
soon shall we plunge 'neath winter's icy pall	J
farewell bright fires of too brief July	A
even now I hear the knell funereal	A
of falling fire logs in the court close by	A
	-
once more on me shall winter all unroll	A
wrath hatred shivering dread Toil's curs d vise	B
and like the sun in his far hell the pole	A
my heart shall be a block of crimson ice	B
	-
I wait aghast each loud impending log	D
thus criminals 'neath rising gibbets cower	C
o dreadful battering ram my soul agog	D
quivers and totters like a crumbling tower	C
	-
till to my dream the cradling echoes drum	G
like hammers madly finishing a bier	C
for whom June yesterday now fall is come	G
mysterious dirge who has departed here	C
	-
	-
II	A
	-
I love your long green eyes of slumberous fire	C
my sweet but now all things are gall to me	B
and naught your room your hearth nor your desire	C
is worth the sunlight shimmering on the sea	B
	-
yet love me tender heart a mother be	B
even to an ingrate or a wicked one	G
mistress or sister be as sweet to me	B
as some brief autumn or a setting sun	G
	-
'twill not be long the hungering tomb awaits	B
ah let me brow at peace upon your knees	B
savour regretful of June's parching heats	B
this balmy soft October ere it flees	B
	-
	-
Translated by Lewis Piaget Shanks	B
	-
Autumn	G
	-
Soon we will plunge ourselves into cold shadows	B
And all of summer's stunning afternoons will be gone	G
I already hear the dead thuds of logs below	A
Falling on the cobblestones and the lawn	G
	-
All of winter will return to me	B
derision Hate shuddering horror drudgery and vice	B
And exiled like the sun to a polar prison	G
My soul will harden into a block of red ice	B
	-
I shiver as I listen to each log crash and slam	E
The echoes are as dull as executioners' drums	B
My mind is like a tower that slowly succumbs	B
To the blows of a relentless battering ram	E
	-
It seems to me swaying to these shocks that someone	G
Is nailing down a coffin in a hurry somewhere	C
For whom It was summer yesterday now it's autumn	G
Echoes of departure keep resounding in the air	C
