The midnight mist billows
through weeping willow limbs,
bedewing luminescent tears
on silken absinthe leaves.
It asphyxiates blooming asphodel,
the moonlit amaranth it abates,
but spares the noxious amanita
by the locked wrought iron gate.
Wild ivy coils tightly round
the cold, high-paled fence,
staving passers-by from trespass
through this dread meadow of torment.
A mourning dove’s soft cooing
joins the north wind’s cooling song
through this eve of lamentation
for a desolate soul now gone.
| Translation - French
La brume nocturne tournoie dans
les branches du saule pleureur,
ses larmes de rosée étincelant
sur les feuilles d’absinthe soyeuses.
Elle asphyxie l’asphodèle en fleur,
atténue l’amarante par la lune éclairée,
mais elle épargne l’amanite maléfique
près du portail en fer forgé bouclé.
Le lierre sauvage s’entortille autour
de l’austère clôture aux pals culminants,
empêchant les curieux de pénétrer
dans ce pré de tourments terrifiant.
Le doux roucoulement d’une colombe triste
se mêle au vent du nord et sa chanson glacée,
pendant cette veille de lamentation pour
une âme affligée éteinte, désormais.
