     It's certainly a very nice poem, but what's it got to do with 
     Glenn Gould?? :-)

Voila ... en francais ....
     
Le vin des amants
     
Aujourd'hui l'espace est splendide!
Sans mors, sans ?perons, sans bride, 
Partons ? cheval sur le vin
Pour un ciel f?erique et divin!
     
Comme deux anges que torture
Une implacable calenture,
Dans le bleu cristal du matin
Suivons le mirage lointain!
     
Mollement balanc?s sur l'aile
Du tourbillon intelligent,
Dans un d?lire parall?le,
     
Ma soeur, c?te ? c?te nageant,
Nous fuirons sans repos ni tr?ves
Vers le paradis de mes r?ves!

and in english
     
WINE OF THE LOVERS
     
Today space itself is splendid!
Without a bit, without spurs, without reins, 
we ride off mounted on wine
toward an enchanted and godlike sky!
     
Like two angels suffering
an implacable tropic fever,
we follow through the blue crystal
that is morning the distant mirage!
     
Indolently balanced on the wing
of an intelligent whirlwind,
in a parallel delirium,
     
Floating side by side, Sister,
we flee with neither repose nor respite 
toward the paradise of my dreams!
