I
Une idée, une Forme, un Être
Parti de l'azur et tombé
Dans un Styx bourbeux et plombé
Où nul ?il du Ciel ne pénètre ;
Un Ange, imprudent voyageur
Qu'a tenté l'amour du difforme,
Au fond d'un cauchemar énorme
Se débattant comme un nageur,
Et luttant, angoisses funèbres !
Contre un gigantesque remous
Qui va chantant comme les fous
Et pirouettant dans les ténèbres ;
Un malheureux ensorcelé
Dans ses tâtonnements futiles,
Pour fuir d'un lieu plein de reptiles,
Cherchant la lumière et la clé ;
Un damné descendant sans lampe,
Au bord d'un gouffre dont l'odeur
Trahit l'humide profondeur,
D'éternels escaliers sans rampe,
Où veillent des monstres visqueux
Dont les larges yeux de phosphore
Font une nuit plus noire encore
Et ne rendent visible qu'eux ;
Un navire pris dans le pôle
Comme en un piège de cristal,
Cherchant par quel détroit fatal
Il est tombé dans cette geôle ;
- Emblèmes nets, tableau parfait
D'une fortune irrémédiable,
Qui donne à penser que le Diable
Fait toujours bien ce qu'il fait !
II
Tête-à-tête sombre et limpide
Qu'un cœur devenu son miroir !
Puits de Vérité, sombre et noir,
Où tremble une étoile livide,
Un phare ironique, infernal,
Flambeau des grâces sataniques,
Soulagement et gloire unique
- La conscience dans le Mal !
The lyrics LXXXIV L'IRRÉMÉDIABLE of MISANTHROPE is also present in the album Irremediable (2008)
I Misanthrope sono una band heavy metal francese formatasi nel 1989. Considerati uno dei pilastri del movimento black metal francese, hanno contribuito a definire il sound oscuro e aggressivo di questo genere musicale. La loro musica è caratterizzata da riff distorti, batteria potente e testi spesso incentrati su temi apocalittici, satanici e anti-sociali. Tra i brani più rappresentativi si ricordano "Le Chant du Loup", "La Mort des Dieux" e "L'Enfer sur Terre". Nel corso della loro carriera hanno pubblicato diversi album, tra cui "Misanthrope" (1990), "The Blackest Day" (1992) e "In the Shadow of Death" (1994). I Misanthrope sono noti per i loro concerti intensi e coinvolgenti, che spesso includono elementi teatrali e scenografici. La band ha collaborato con altri artisti del genere black metal francese, come Darkthrone e Gorgoroth.

My favorite group when I was just a teenager were the Fugees, thanks to them a certain curiosity about english language was born in me. I wanted to know and understand the lyrics of their songs, it wasn't enough for me to be carried away exclusively by their beautiful music.
