William Butler Yeats: He Wishes For The Cloths Of Heaven (English)

 
Had I the heavens' embroidered cloths, 
Enwrought with golden and silver light, 
The blue and the dim and the dark cloths 
Of night and light and the half-light, 
I would spread the cloths under your feet: 
But I, being poor, have only my dreams; 
I have spread my dreams under your feet; 
Tread softly because you tread on my dreams.

nuit et de la lumière et de la moitié-lumière, je répandrais les 
tissus sous vos pieds: Mais I, étant pauvre, ont seulement mes 
rêves; J'ai écarté mes rêves sous vos pieds; Marcher doucement 
parce que tu marches sur mes rêves.

sendo pobre, tem somente meus sonhos; Eu espalhei meus sonhos sob seus 
pés; Pisar macia porque você pisa em meus sonhos.
