I've no doubt that "Du sang trait de mes yeux" means "with the blood drawn from my eyes".
I'm sure the poet is asking Christ to supply his eyes with blood for purifying tears, which he'll then pour over the carmelites. As to why it's his job to do that, well... that's above my theological pay grade!
