Poem translation

edit

What is the source of the English translation of the poem? Is it a published "literary" translation, in which case its source should be acknowledged or is it intended as a literal translation? If the latter, it's wrong. Au bruit des fontaines ought to be "To the noise/sound of the fountains" or "At the noise/sound of the fountains". Ce n’est qu’un village ought to be "This is just/only a village" or "It is just/only a village". Où l’on est heureux ought to be "Where one is happy".
