French Vint
Can someone help me translate this from French to English?
L’ai-je bien entendu? grands dieux! le puis-je croire,
Qu’oubliant ses engagemens,
Achille, au mépris de sa gloire,
Au mépris de l’amour, trahisse ses sermens?
Hélas! mon coeur sensible et tendre,
De ce jeune héros s’était laissé charmer!
La gloire et le devoir m’ordonnaient de l’aimer.
Et d’accord avec eux, l’amour vint me surprendre.
Parjure! tu m’oses trahir;
Un autre objet a su te plaire:
Je te dois toute ma colère;
Je forcerai mon coeur à te haïr.
Que sa tendresse avoit pour moi de charmes!
Qu’il est cruel d’y renoncer!
De mes yeux, malgré moi, je sens couler des larmes;
Est-ce pour un ingrat qu’ils en devraient verser!
This is really hard because it’s very old fashioned french (and it’s literary, with some spelling mistakes in the French…) but I’ll give it a go. Also, this isn’t a completely literal translation as I’ve tried to make it make more sense:
Have I understood him properly? Great God! Can I believe
that Achilles, in forgetting his commitments,
with the disdain of his glory, with the disdain of his love,
has betrayed his oaths?
Alas! My sensitive and tender heart
Has been charmed by this young hero!
Glory and duty have ordered me to love him.
And in agreement with them, love has overcome me.
Treachery! You dare to betray me;
Another person knew how to please you:
All my anger is owed to you;
I will force my heart to hate you.
How charming his tenderness was for me!
How cruel he is to relinquish it!
Despite myself, I can feel my tears flowing from my eyes;
Is it for an ingrate that they had to pay!
