HERE IS CHANSON D' AUTOMNE

BY PAUL VERLAINE(1844-1896),

A SYMBOLIST POET OF PARIS:

LES SAGLOTS LONGS

DES VIOLONS

DE L'AUTOMNE

BLESSE MON COEUR

D'UNE LONGEUR

MONOTONE...

he goes on to say something like this:

AND I GO

WHERE THE WINDS KNOW

BROKEN AND BRIEF

GOING AND COMING

AS THE WINDS BLOW

A DEAD LEAF...

like Rimbaud ,I like Verlaine's version better,although I dared translating

it at age 12 ,in the absence of Hassan Hoarmandi,to read it for my classmates in front of our late teacher Parviz Tehrani.This was in Pahlavi High Schhool of Sari and know in Champs Elysees de Paris.I hope Verlaine forgives me.

ET JE ME VAIS

AU VENT MAUVAIS

QUI M'EMPORTES

DECA DELA

PAREIL A LA FEUILE MORTE
