| | Welcome to my new Collaborations page |
| Information for song "Voyelles (Mike Roberts)" | | | | |  | Mike Roberts` setting of Rimbaud`s voyelles is very grand
and
reflects, possibly with tongue in cheek, the poet`s sense of
self-importance: Rimbaud knows exactly what each vowel means and will
not be
gainsaid. The proud string sounds say it all. |  Play

| | Song Lyrics | A noir, E blanc, I rouge, U vert, O bleu: voyelles,
Je dirai quelque jour vos naissances latentes:
A, noir corset velu des mouches éclatantes
Qui bombinent autour des puanteurs cruelles,
Golfes d`ombre;
E, candeurs des vapeurs et des tentes,
Lances des glaciers, rois blancs, frissons d`ombelles;
I, pourpres, sang craché, rire des lèvres belles
Dans la colère ou les ivresses pénitentes;
U, cycles, vibrements divins des mers virides,
Paix des pâtis semés d`animaux,
paix des rides que l`alchimie imprime aux grands fronts studieux;
O, suprême clairon plein des strideurs étranges,
Silences traversés des Mondes et des Anges:
- O, l`Oméga, rayon violet de Ses Yeux!
