Toujours en pause pour quelques temps, mais près de vous par la,pensée et par le coeur. C'est un plaisir de parcourir vos images qui me font voyager sans sortir de ma chambre, découvrir ce que vous avez découvert . Un plaisir aussi de partager les mots de ces poètes, orfèvres de la langue française, qui nous ont légué tant de bijoux..... Merci pour vos visites tellement appréciées !!! - Amitiés et bisous*****************
Where are the snows of yesteryear ? (translation by Ode L.)
Tell me where, in which country
Is Flora, the beautiful Roman;
Archipiada, or Thaïs
Who was her first cousin;
Echo, reproducing your voice
Over river or on pond,
Whose beauty surpassed human beauty?
Oh, where are the snows of yesteryear!
Where is the very wise Héloïse,
For whom was castrated, and then made a monk,
Pierre Esbaillart ( Abelard ) in Saint-Denis ?
For his love he suffered this sentence.
Similarly, where is the Queen ( Marguerite de Bourgogne )
Who ordered that Buridan
Be thrown in a sack into the Seine ?
Oh, where are the snows of yesteryear!
Queen Blanche, as white as a lily ( Blanche of Castile )
Who sang with a Siren's voice;
Bertha of the Big Foot, Beatrix, Aelis;
Erembourge, who ruled over the Maine,
And Joan ( Joan of Arc ), the good woman from Lorraine
Whom the English burned in Rouen;
Where are they, oh sovereign Virgin ?
Oh, where are the snows of yesteryear!
Prince, do not ask me all week long
Where they are – neither ask me all year long,
Lest I bring you back to this refrain:
Oh, where are the snows of yesteryear!

Je te souhaite une bonne et douce semaine clémente et salutaire.
