Original text and translations

French text Quant tu dors, calme et pure, dans l'ombre, sous mes yeux, Ton haleine murmure des mots harmonieux; Ton beau corps se révèle sans voile et sans atours… Dormez, ma belle, dormez toujours!

English translation When you sleep, calm and pure, In the shadow, beneath my gaze, Your breathing murmurs Harmonious words; Your lovely body is revealed Without veil or finery… Sleep, my beauty, Sleep forever!
