Libretto/Lyrics/Text/Testo:
DES GRIEUXseul
Je suis seul! Seul enfin!
C'evt le moment suprême!
Il n'est plus rien que j'aime
que le repos sacré que m'apporte la foi!
Oui, j'ai voulu mettre Die même
entre le monde et moi !
Ah! fuyez, douce image, à mon âme trop chère;
respectez un repos cruellement gagné,
et songez si j'ai bu dans une voupe amère.
que mon cœur l'emplirait de ce qu'il a saigné!
Ah! fuyez! fuyez! loin de moi!
Que m'importe la vie et ce semblant de gloire?
Je ne veux que chasser du fond de ma mémoire...
Un nom maudit! … ce nom … qui m'obsède, et pourquoi?
LE PORTIER DU SÉMINAIRE
C'est l'office.
DES GRIEUX
J'y vais!... Mon Dieu!
De votre flamme
purifiez mon âme...
Et dissipez à sa lueur
l'ombre qui passe encor dans le fond de mon cœur!...
Ah! fuyez, douce image, à mon âme trop chère!
Ah fuyez! fuyez! loin de moi! etc.
Il sort.
LE PORTIER DU SÉMINAIRE
Il est jeune … et sa foi semble sincère …
il a fait grand émoi parmi les plus belles de nos fidèles!
English Libretto or Translation:
DES GRIEUXalone
I am alone! At last alone!
It is the supreme moment!
There is nothing more that I want
except the sacred calm that my faith brings me.
Yes, I have sought to place God himself
between the world and me.
Ah! Vanish sweet memory too dear to my heart;
respect a calm won through much suffering,
and remember that if I have tasted of a bitter cup,
my heart could fill it full with the blood it has shed!
Ah! Vanish, vanish, go far from me!
Life itself and sham glory mean nothing to me.
I want only to expel from the depths of my memory...
A cursed name!... this name... which obsesses me, and why?
PORTER OF THE SEMINARY
The service is beginning.
DES GRIEUX
I'm on my way... Heavenly Father!
With Your fire
purify my soul!
and by its light dispel
the shadow that still lurks in the depths of my heart!
Ah! Vanish, sweet memory, too dear to my heart.
Vanish, vanish, go far away from me! etc.
exit
PORTER OF THE SEMINARY
He is young... and his faith appears sincere...
He created a great stir among the most
beautiful ladies among our faithful!
