But silence-trera means nothing, or it's just for the rhyme. Cybele's Reverie
Childhood is very nice
Childhood brings magic
What to do when one has done everything?
Read everything, drunk everything, eaten everything?
Given everthing in truth and in detail,
When one has cried on all the rooftops,
Wept and laughed in the towns and in the country?
Childhood is the most real
The garden of new visions
The house, the house, of other times
The house, the house that we have left
And the silence
That penetrates me
Childhood is very nice
Childhood brings magic
What to do when one has done everything?
Read everything, drunk everything, eaten everything?
Given everthing in truth and in detail,
When one has cried on all the rooftops,
Wept and laughed in the towns and in the country?
Childhood is the most real
The garden of new visions
The house, the house, of other times
The house, the house that we have left
And the silence
That penetrates me

Lyrics which echo these lines from Le Voyage by Baudelaire:
Pour l'enfant, amoureux de cartes et d'estampes, L'univers est égal à son vaste appétit. Ah ! que le monde est grand à la clarté des lampes ! Aux yeux du souvenir que le monde est petit !
