LE JEUNE HOMME ET LE VIEILLARD

Poeme
De grâce, apprenez-moi comment l’on fait fortune,
Demandait à son père un jeune ambitieux.
Il est, dit le vieillard, un chemin glorieux :
C’est de se rendre utile à la cause commune,


De prodiguer ses jours, ses veilles, ses talents,
Au service de la patrie.
Oh ! trop pénible est cette vie ;
Je veux des moyens moins brillants.
Il en est de plus sûrs, l’intrigue...


Elle est trop vile ;
Sans vice et sans travail je voudrais m’enrichir.


Et bien ! soit un simple imbécile,
J’en ai vu beaucoup réussir.




Translation

, J:Please, teach me how to make a fortune,
a young, ambitious man asked his father.
V:That is, said the old man, a glorious path:
It means making yourself useful to the common cause (public service),
Giving your days (lavishly) one’s waking hours, one’s talents
In the service of the country.
J:Oh, this life is too painful
I want less brilliant (impressive, intelligent) methods.
V:There are more certain ways… immoral methods (illicit)
J:That is too wicked
Without vice (crime) and without work, I would like to become rich.
V: Well! Just be a simple idiot,
I’ve seem lots of them succeed.
