Victor Marie Hugo - Extase (Ecstasy)

J'étais seul près des flots, par une nuit d'étoiles. <br />Pas un nuage aux cieux, sur les mers pas de voiles. <br />Mes yeux plongeaient plus loin que le monde réel. <br />Et les bois, et les monts, et toute la nature, <br />Semblaient interroger dans un confus murmure <br />Les flots des mers, les feux du ciel. <br /> <br />Et les étoiles d'or, légions infinies, <br />A voix haute, à voix basse, avec mille harmonies, <br />Disaient, en inclinant leurs couronnes de feu ; <br />Et les flots bleus, que rien ne gouverne et n'arrête, <br />Disaient, en recourbant l'écume de leur crête : <br />- C'est le Seigneur, le Seigneur Dieu ! <br /> <br />Ecstasy <br /> <br />I was alone beside the sea, upon a starry night <br />And not a cloud was in the sky, and not a sail in sight; <br />Beyond the limits of the world far stretched my raptured eye, <br />And the forests and the mountains, and nature all around, <br />Seemed to unite in questioning, in vast and mingled sound, <br />The billows of the ocean, and the splendour of the sky. <br /> <br />And the golden stars of heaven, in their unnumbered crowd, <br />WIth harmonies ten thousand, with voices clear and loud, <br />Replied, as low they bended down their radiant crowns of flame <br />And the blue floods that nought has power to govern or arrest, <br />Replied, as low they bended down, the foam upon their crest— <br />'The Lord, our great Creator, His glory we proclaim!'<br /><br />Victor Marie Hugo<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/extase-ecstasy/
