Eternity

He who binds himself to a joy

Does the wingèd life destroy ;

But he who kisses the joy as it flies

Lives in eternity's sun rise.
-William Blake-

Celui qui veut conquérir la joie,

Malgré lui, la brisera ;

Celui qui, quand elle passe, sait doucement l'embrasser

Pourra toute sa vie en profiter.
