About 'Tristes apprets from Castor and Pollux'

Info:
Lyrics:

Tristes apprêts, pâles flambeaux,
Jour plus affreux que les ténèbres
Astres lugubres des tombeaux,
Non, je ne verrai plus que vos clartés funèbres.

Toi, qui vois mon cœur éperdu,
Père du jour, ô soleil, ô mon pére !
Je ne veux plus d'un bien que Castor
Et je renonce à la lumière.

Tristes apprêts, pâles flambeaux,
Jour plus affreux que les ténèbres
Astres lugubres des tombeaux,
Non, je ne verrai plus que vos clartés funèbres.

Translation

Mournful apparitions, pale flames,
Day more frightening than darkness,
Dismal stars within tombs,
No, I shall no longer see anything other than your funereal beams.

You who see my heart dismayed,
Father of the day, O Sun! o my Father!
I no longer wish a blessing that Castor has lost,
And I renounce your light.
