about

lyrics

My sister, oh my child, think of that life so mild,
dwelling together, loving at leisure,
loving and dying and in your very land.
The brimming suns of those wan skies
evoke such spells:
charms without reason, as with the treason of eyes tear-welled.
All there is form and beauty, sensual serenity.

Soft gleaming chairs, stroked by the years
gracing our chamber and rare flowers
mingling their odour with scent of amber.
Sumptuous ceilings infinite mirrors gracing our chamber,
and subtle splendours:
all would accord secrets: sweet secrets to the soul in their own words.
And all is form and beauty, sensual ecstasy.


On the canal float and rock the boats in errant mood.
It is to soothe your every whim from far they come.
The setting sun enflames the town, the fields, canals alike, in gold and hyacinth,
while the world sinks into a warm warm light.
There all is formal beauty, calm sensuality.

(Poem by S N Solomons after Baudelaire's poem L'invitation au voyage)
