9 Le séjour des morts s'émeut jusque dans ses profondeurs, Pour t'accueillir à ton arrivée; Il réveille devant toi les ombres, tous les grands de la terre, Il fait lever de leurs trônes tous les rois des nations.
9
The realm of the dead below is all astir to meet you at your coming; it rouses the spirits of the departed to greet you— all those who were leaders in the world; it makes them rise from their thrones— all those who were kings over the nations.
