Please be patient

Our volunteers look into many questions every day; sometimes it takes them a little while to answer.

Pro tip: you can rename the thread title with `.tr <thread name>`

Make it descriptive, including relevant context, but also to the point. This way you improve your chances of getting a more relevant and specific answer.

[sage pendant]

Do you have the context?

[restive tusk]

how could we know why the infinitive would be used without seeing the sentence?

also the translation of a poem usually can't be used to understand the meaning of individual words or phrases in the french

miroiter la peau doesn't clearly mean reflect the light on its own like that

[noble holly]

Que j'aime voir, chère indolente,
De ton corps si beau,
Comme une étoffe vacillante,
Miroiter la peau!

Sur ta chevelure profonde
Aux âcres parfums,
Mer odorante et vagabonde
Aux flots bleus et bruns,

Le Serpent qui danse is the title

[hearty star]

This site has both the original and the English translation.

It does a better job of conveying the meaning instead of translating purely on the basis of the words used.
