From Rilke's Les Roses.
Abandon entouré d'abandon, |Abandon surrounding abandon,
tendresse touchant aux tendresses… |tenderness touching tenderness...
C'est ton intérieur qui sans cesse |Your oneness endlessly
se caresse, dirait-on; |caresses itself, so they say;
se caresse en soi-même, |Self-caressing,
par son propre reflet éclairé. |through its own clear reflection.
Ainsi tu inventes le thème |Thus you invent the theme
du Narcisse exaucé. |of Narcissus fulfilled.
