Au fond du temple saint from The Pearl Fishers
Nadir:
Au fond du temple saint,
paré de fluers et d’or,
une femme apparaît . . .
je crois la voir encor.
Zurga:
Je crois la voir encor . . .
Nadir:
La foule prosternée
la regarde étonée
et murmure tout bas:
voyez, c’est la déesse
qui dans l’ombre se dresse
et vers nous tend les bras.
Zurga:
Son voile se soulève;
ô vision, ô rêve!
La foule est à genoux.
Nadir, Zurga:
Oui, c’est elle, c’est la déesse,
plus charmante et plus belle
qui descend parmi nous.
Nadir:
Mais à travers la foule
elle s’ouvre un passage.
Zurga:
Son long voile
déjà nous cache son visage.
Nadir:
Mon regard, hélas,
la cherche en vain.
Nadir, Zurga:
Oui, c’est elle, c’est la déesse . . .
en ce jour qui vient nous unir,
et fidèle à ma promesse,
comme un frère je veux te chérir!
Oui, partageons le même sort,
soyons unis jusqu’à la mort!
Nadir:
At the back of the temple holy,
adorned with flowers and gold,
a woman appears,
I think I see her still.
Zurga:
I think I see her still . . .
Nadir:
The crowd prostrate
looks in astonishment
and murmurs softly:
look, it is the goddess
who in the shadows rises
and toward us holds out her arms.
Zurga:
Her veil is lifted;
oh vision, oh dream!
The crowd is on its knees.
Nadir, Zurga:
Yes, it is she, it is the goddess,
more charming and more beautiful,
who descends among us.
Nadir:
But through the crowd
She opens for herself a path.
Zurga:
Her long veil
now hides from us her face.
Nadir:
My gaze, alas,
seeks her in vain.
Nadir, Zurga:
Yes, it is she, it is the goddess . . .
on this day that comes to untie us,
and true to my promise,
as a brother I wish to cherish you!
Yes, let us share the same fate,
let us stay together until death!
