Alan Rickman singing in French

EDIT: The comments you guys leave make my day! I really appreciate the great humor!

I have no idea what he is saying, but it is the most beautiful thing I have ever heard. Just close your eyes and listen....

If anyone knows where the picture is from, let me know so I can give credit.

This is from the audiobook "The Return of the Native" by Thomas Hardy. 15 hours of Alan reading; it is worth every penny.

Here is the excerpt from the book. I'm not sure how to make the accent marks so please note that it is without some of the markings.

"Le point du jour
A nos bosquets rend toute leur parure;
Flore est plus belle a son retour;
L'oiseau reprend doux chant d'amour;
Tout celebre dans la nature
Le point du jour.

Le point du jour
Cause parfois, cause douleur extreme;
Que l'espace des nuits est court
Pour le berger brulant d'amour,
Force de quitter ce qu'il aime
Au point du jour!"

EDIT: DeathEtheree was kind enough to translate this for us! Here is the translation:
"The point of day A our groves returns all their finery; flora is nicer has his return; the bird takes back soft singing of love; any celebre in nature The point of day. The point of day Sometimes talks, causes extreme pain;That the space of the nights is short For the shepherd brulant of love, Force to leave what he likes At daybreak! "

Thank you very much DeathEtheree!

Another Edit: theMUDBLOODjacky translated the text with google-translator:
Daybreak
In our groves makes all their finery;
Flora is best on his return;
The bird takes sweet love song;
While famous in nature
Daybreak.

Daybreak
Cause sometimes cause extreme pain;
That space is short nights
For the shepherd of burning love
Force quit what he loves
At daybreak!

mmmmm and I thought his English was audio-sex. His French just skips the formalities and gets right to the ecstasy.
