Mon beau navire ô ma mémoire Avons-nous assez navigué Dans une onde mauvaise à Boire Avons-nous assez divagué De la belle aube au triste soir

guillaume apollinaire

— O pretty ship, my memory
Isn't this far enough to sea,
And the sea not fit to drink?
Haven't we drifted far and lost
From fair dawn to dreary dusk?
"La Chanson du Mal-Aimé" (Song of the Poorly Loved), line 51; translation by William Meredith, from Francis Steegmuller Apollinaire: Poet Among the Painters (Harmondsworth: Penguin, 1973) p. 95.
