Après Un Rêve

Gabriel Fauré Gabriel Fauré

After a Dream

In a sleep charmed by your image
I dreamed of happiness, a fervent mirage
Your eyes were sweeter, your voice pure and sonorous
You shone like a sky lit by the dawn

You called me and I left the earth
To flee with you towards the light
The heavens opened their clouds for us
Unknown splendors, divine glimmers in between views

Alas! Alas, sad awakening from dreams
I call you, oh night, give me back your lies
Return, return radiant
Return, oh mysterious night!
