Верхарн Эмиль - Les Heures Claires charme,
Qu'à le goûter, nos cœurs soient prêts à dêfaillir.
Restons quand même et pour toujours, les fous
De cet amour presqu'implacable,
Et les fervents, à deux genoux,
Du Dieu soudain qui règne en nous,
Si violent et si ardemment doux
Qu'il nous fait mal et nous accable.
Sitôt que nos bouches se touchent,
Nous nous sentons tant plus clairs de nous-mêmes
Que l'on dirait des Dieux qui s'aiment
Et qui s'unissent en nous-mêmes ;
Nous nous sentons le cœur si divinement frais
Et si renouvelê par leur lumière
Première
Que l'univers, sous leur clartê, nous apparaît.
La joie est à nos yeux l'unique fleur du monde
Qui se prodigue et se fêconde,
Innombrable, sur nos routes d'en bas ;
Comme là haut, par tas,
En des pays de soie où voyagent des voiles
Brille la fleur myriadaire des êtoiles.
L'ordre nous êblouit, comme les feux, la cendre,
Tout nous êclaire et nous paraît : flambeau ;
Nos plus simples mots ont un sens si beau
Que nous les rêpêtons pour les sans cesse entendre.
Nous sommes les victorieux sublimes
Qui conquêrons l'êternitê,
Sans nul orgueil et sans songer au temps minime :
Et notre amour nous semble avoir toujours êtê.
Pour que rien de nous deux n'êchappe à notre êtreinte,
Si profonde qu'elle en est sainte
Et qu'à travers le corps même, l'amour soit clair,
Nous descendons ensemble au jardin de ta chair.
Tes seins sont là, ainsi que des offrandes,
Et tes deux mains me sont tendues ;
Et rien ne vaut la naïve provende
Des paroles dites et entendues.
L'ombre des rameaux blancs voyage
Parmi ta gorge et ton visage
Et tes cheveux dênouent leur floraison,
En guirlandes, sur les gazons.
La nuit est toute d'argent bleu,
La nuit est un beau lit silencieux,
La nuit douce, dont les brises vont, une à une,
Effeuiller les grands lys dardês au clair de lune.
Bien que dêjà, ce soir,
L'automne
Laisse aux sentes et aux orêes,
Comme des mains dorêes,
Lentes, les feuilles choir ;
Bien que dêjà l'automne,
Ce soir, avec ses bras de vent,
Moissonne
Sur les rosiers fervents,
Les pêtales et leur pâleur,
Ne laissons rien de nos deux âmes
Tomber soudain avec ces fleurs.
Mais tous les deux autour des flammes
De l'âtre en or du souvenir,
Mais tous les deux blottissons-nous,
Les mains au feu et les genoux.
Contre les deuils à craindre ou à venir,
Contre le temps qui fixe à toute ardeur sa fin,
Contre notre terreur, contre nous-mêmes, enfin,
Blottissons-nous, près du foyer,
Que la mêmoire en nous fait flamboyer.
Et si l'automne obère
A grands pans d'ombre et d'orages plânants,
Les bois, les pelouses et les êtangs,
Que sa douleur du moins n'altère
L'intêrieur jardin tranquillisê,
Où s'unissent, dans la lumière,
Les pas êgaux de nos pensêes.
Le don du corps, lorsque l'âme est donnêe
N'est rien que l'aboutissement
De deux tendresses entraînêes
L'une vers l'autre, êperdûment.
Tu n'es heureuse de ta chair
Si simple, en sa beautê natale,
Que pour, avec ferveur, m'en faire
L'offre complète et l'aumône totale.
Et je me donne à toi, ne sachant rien
Sinon que je m'exalte à te connaître,
Toujours meilleure et plus pure peut-être
Depuis que ton doux corps offrit sa fête au mien.
L'amour, oh ! qu'il nous soit la clairvoyance
Unique, et l'unique raison du cœur,
A nous, dont le plus fol bonheur
Est d'être fous de confiance.
Fût-il en nous une seule tendresse,
Une pensêe, une joie, une promesse,
Qui n'allât, d'elle-même, au devant de nos pas ?
Fût-il une prière en secret entendue,
Dont nous n'ayons serrê les mains tendues
Avec douceur, sur notre sein ?
Fût-il un seul appel, un seul dessein,
Un vœu tranquille ou violent
Dont nous n'ayons êpanoui l'êlan ?
Et, nous aimant ainsi,
Nos cœurs s'en sont allês, tels des apôtres,
Vers les doux cœurs timides et transis
Des autres :
Ils les ont conviês, par la pensêe,
A se sentir aux nôtres fiancês,
A proclamer l'amour avec des ardeurs franches,
Comme un peuple de fleurs aime la même branche
Qui le suspend et le baigne dans le soleil ;
Et notre âme, comme agrandie, en cet êveil,
S'est mise à cêlêbrer tout ce qui aime,
Magnifiant l'amour pour l'amour même,
Et à chêrir, divinement, d'un dêsir fou,
Le monde entier qui se rêsume en nous.
Le beau jardin fleuri de flammes
Qui nous semblait le double ou le miroir,
Du jardin clair que nous portions dans l'âme,
Se cristallise en gel et or, ce soir.
Un grand silence blanc est descendu s'asseoir
Là-bas, aux horizons de marbre,
Vers où s'en vont, par dêfilês, les arbres
Avec leur ombre immense et bleue
Et rêgulière, à côtê d'eux.
Aucun souffle de vent, aucune haleine.
Les grands voiles du froid,
Se dêplient seuls, de plaine en plaine,
Sur des marais d'argent ou des routes en croix.
Les êtoiles paraissent vivre.
Comme l'acier, brille le givre,
A travers l'air translucide et glacê.
De clairs mêtaux pulvêrisês
A l'infini, semblent neiger
De la pâleur d'une lune de cuivre.
Tout est scintillement dans l'immobilitê.
Et c'est l'heure divine, où l'esprit est hantê
Par ces mille regards que projette sur terre,
Vers les hasards de l'humaine misère,
La bonne et pure et inchangeable êternitê.
S'il arrive jamais
Que nous soyons, sans le savoir,
Souffrance ou peine ou dêsespoir,
L'un pour l'autre ; s'il se faisait
Que la fatigue ou le banal plaisir
Dêtendissent en nous l'arc d'or du haut dêsir ;
Si le cristal de la pure pensêe
De notre amour doit se briser,
Si malgrê tout, je me sentais
Vaincu pour n'avoir pas êtê
Assez en proie à la divine immensitê
De la bontê ;
Alors, oh ! serrons-nous comme deux fous sublimes
Qui sous les cieux cassês, se cramponnent aux cimes
Quand même. - Et d'un unique essor
L'âme en soleil, s'exaltent dans la mort.

1.F.
1.F.1. Project Gutenberg volunteers and employees expend considerable
effort to identify, do copyright research on, transcribe and proofread
public domain works in creating the Project Gutenberg-tm
collection. Despite these efforts, Project Gutenberg-tm electronic
works, and the medium on which they may be stored, may contain
"Defects," such as, but not limited to, incomplete, inaccurate or
corrupt data, transcription errors, a copyright or other intellectual
property infringement, a defective or damaged disk or other medium, a
computer virus, or computer codes that damage or cannot be read by
your equipment.
1.F.2. LIMITED WARRANTY, DISCLAIMER OF DAMAGES - Except for the "Right
of Replacement or Refund" described in paragraph 1.F.3, the Project

liability to you for damages, costs and expenses, including legal
fees. YOU AGREE THAT YOU HAVE NO REMEDIES FOR NEGLIGENCE, STRICT
LIABILITY, BREACH OF WARRANTY OR BREACH OF CONTRACT EXCEPT THOSE
PROVIDED IN PARAGRAPH F3. YOU AGREE THAT THE FOUNDATION, THE
TRADEMARK OWNER, AND ANY DISTRIBUTOR UNDER THIS AGREEMENT WILL NOT BE
LIABLE TO YOU FOR ACTUAL, DIRECT, INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL, PUNITIVE OR
INCIDENTAL DAMAGES EVEN IF YOU GIVE NOTICE OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH
DAMAGE.
1.F.3. LIMITED RIGHT OF REPLACEMENT OR REFUND - If you discover a
defect in this electronic work within 90 days of receiving it, you can
receive a refund of the money (if any) you paid for it by sending a
written explanation to the person you received the work from. If you
received the work on a physical medium, you must return the medium with
your written explanation. The person or entity that provided you with
the defective work may elect to provide a replacement copy in lieu of a
refund. If you received the work electronically, the person or entity
providing it to you may choose to give you a second opportunity to
receive the work electronically in lieu of a refund. If the second copy
is also defective, you may demand a refund in writing without further
opportunities to fix the problem.
1.F.4. Except for the limited right of replacement or refund set forth
in paragraph 1.F.3, this work is provided to you 'AS-IS," WITH NO OTHER
WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO

1.F.5. Some states do not allow disclaimers of certain implied
warranties or the exclusion or limitation of certain types of damages.
If any disclaimer or limitation set forth in this agreement violates the
law of the state applicable to this agreement, the agreement shall be
interpreted to make the maximum disclaimer or limitation permitted by
the applicable state law. The invalidity or unenforceability of any
provision of this agreement shall not void the remaining provisions.
1.F.6. INDEMNITY - You agree to indemnify and hold the Foundation, the
trademark owner, any agent or employee of the Foundation, anyone
providing copies of Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works in accordance
with this agreement, and any volunteers associated with the production,

or cause to occur: (a) distribution of this or any Project Gutenberg-tm
work, (b) alteration, modification, or additions or deletions to any
Project Gutenberg-tm work, and (c) any Defect you cause.
Section 2. Information about the Mission of Project Gutenberg-tm
Project Gutenberg-tm is synonymous with the free distribution of
electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of computers
including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new computers. It exists
because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and donations from
people in all walks of life.
Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the
assistance they need, is critical to reaching Project Gutenberg-tm's
goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg-tm collection will
remain freely available for generations to come. In 2001, the Project
Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure
and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future generations.
