3 Songs, Op. 5 No. 3, L'absent song lyrics by Isobel Buchanan official

3 Songs, Op. 5 No. 3, L'absent is a song in French

Sentiers où l'herbe se balance
Vallons, coteaux, bois chevelus
Pourquoi ce deuil et ce silence?
Celui qui venait ne vient plus

Pourquoi personne à ta fenêtre
Et pourquoi ton jardin sans fleurs
Ô maison! où donc est ton maître?
Je ne sais pas, il est ailleurs

Chien, veille au logis. Pourquoi faire?
La maison est vide à présent
Enfant, qui pleures-tu? Mon père
Femme, qui pleures-tu? L'absent

Où donc est-il allé? Dans l'ombre
Flots qui gémissez sur l'écueil
D'où venez-vous? Du bagne sombre
Et qu'apportez-vous? Un cercueil

Paths of swaying grass
Valleys, hillsides, leafy woods
Why this mourning and this silence?
He who came here comes no more

Why is no-one at your window
And why is your garden without flowers
O house, where is your master?
I do not know: he is elsewhere

Dog, guard the home. For what reason?
The house is empty now
Child, who is it you mourn? My father
Woman, who is it you mourn? The absent one

Where has he gone? Into the shadow
Waves that moan against the reefs
From where do you come? The dark convict prison
And what do you carry? A coffin
