"Thus, I give up the spear!" - literary translation

"Vers toi je roule, baleine destructrice qui ne récolte que le néant, je suis aux prises avec toi jusqu’au dernier instant, du cœur de l’enfer je te frappe, au nom de la haine je crache contre toi mon dernier souffle. Sombrez tous cercueils, tous corbillards dans la mare commune puisque nuls ne peuvent êtres miens, que je sois déchiqueté et lié à toi en te chassant, baleine maudite ! C’est ainsi que je rends les armes !"

--la traduction est celle de Henriette Guex-Rolle
