Текст и перевод песни Pascal Obispo - Le secret perdu

Le secret perdu

Qui me consolera?
Moi seule, a dit l'étude
J'ai des secrets nombreux pour ranimer tes jours.
Les livres ont dès lors peuplé ma solitude,
Et j'appris que tout pleure, et je pleurai toujours.
Qui me consolera?
Qui me consolera?
Qui me consolera?
Qui me consolera?
Moi, m'a dit la parure
Voici des noeuds, du fard
Des perles et de l'or
Et j'essayai sur moi l'innocente imposture,
Mais je parais mon deuil
Et je pleurais encore
Qui me consolera?
Qui me consolera?
Qui me consolera?
Qui me consolera?
Nous, m'ont dit les voyages
Laisse-nous t'emporter vers de lointaines fleurs.
Mais, toute éprise encore de mes premiers ombrages,
Les ombrages nouveaux n'ont caché que mes pleurs.
Qui me consolera?
Qui me consolera?
Rien, plus rien; plus personne.
Ni leurs voix, ni ta voix; mais descends dans ton coeur;
Le secret qui guérit n'est qu'en toi. Dieu le donne:
Si Dieu te l'a repris, va! renonce au bonheur
Renonce au bonheur
Qui me consolera?
Qui me consolera?
Qui me consolera?
Qui me consolera?

The Lost Secret

Who will console me?
Only me, said Study,
I have many secrets to revive your days.
Henceforth books populated my solitude,
And I learned that all things weep, and I always wept.
Who will console me?
Who will console me?
Who will console me?
Who will console me?
Me, said Finery,
Here are ribbons, make-up,
Pearls and gold,
And I tried the innocent imposture on myself,
But I adorned my mourning,
And still I wept,
Who will console me?
Who will console me?
Who will console me?
Who will console me?
We, said Travel,
Let us take you away to distant flowers.
But, still enraptured by my first shadows,
The new shadows only concealed my tears.
Who will console me?
Who will console me?
Nothing, no one, no more.
Neither their voices, nor yours; but descend into your heart;
The secret that heals is only in you. God gives it:
If God has taken it from you, go! renounce happiness,
Renounce happiness,
Who will console me?
Who will console me?
Who will console me?
Who will console me?
