In the poem each vowel is allocated a colour and a strange vision, which are reflected in the music.It is performed here by the dwsChoraleA noir, E blanc, I rouge, O vert, U bleu: voyelles,[A black, E white, I red, O green, U blue: vowels]Je dirai quelque jour vos naissances latentes:[One day I shall explain your hidden births]A, noir corset velu des mouches éclatantesQui bombinent autour des puanteurs cruelles,Golfes d`ombre;[A, hairy corset of shiny fliesbuzzing around cruel stenchesShadowy gulfs]E, candeurs des vapeurs et des tentes,Lances des glaciers, rois blancs, frissons d`ombelles;[E, candour of mists and tentsLances of glaciers, white kings, quivering umbels]I, pourpre, sang craché, rire des lèvres bellesDans la colère ou les ivresses pénitentes;[I, purple, spat blood, laughter of pretty lipsIn anger or penitent drunkenness]U, cycles, vibrements divins des mers virides,Paix des pâtis semés d`animaux,Paix des rides que l`alchimie imprime aux grands fronts studieux;U, cycles, divine quivering of the green seas[Peace of pastures scattered with animalsPeace of the wrinkles printed by alchemy upon the wide foreheads of scholars]O, suprême clairon plein des strideurs étranges,Silences traversés des Mondes et des Anges:[O, the last bugle with strange fulsome strident tonesSilences through which worlds and angels pass]O, l`Oméga, rayon violet de Ses Yeux![O is Omega, the violet beam of His eyes] This product was created by a member of ArrangeMe, Hal Leonard’s global self-publishing community of independent composers, arrangers, and songwriters.
