Romance: 'L’âme evaporée est souffrante'
L’âme évaporée et souffrante,L’âme douce, l’âme odoranteDes lis divins que j’ai cueillisDans le jardin de ta pensée,Où donc les vents l’ont-ils chassée,Cette âme adorable des lis?N’est-il plus un parfum qui resteDe la suavité célesteDes jours où tu m’enveloppaisD’une vapeur surnaturelle,Faite d’espoir, d’amour fidèle,De béatitude et de paix?
The spent and suffering soul
The spent and suffering soul,The sweet soul, the soul steepedIn the divine lilies I gatheredIn the garden of your thoughts,Where have the winds dispersed it,This adorable lilies’ soul?Does not a single scent remainOf the heavenly softnessOf the days when you enclosed meIn a supernatural mist,Made of hope, of faithful love,Of bliss and of peace?

Romance: 'L’âme evaporée est souffrante'
L’âme évaporée et souffrante,
L’âme douce, l’âme odorante
Des lis divins que j’ai cueillis
Dans le jardin de ta pensée,
Où donc les vents l’ont-ils chassée,
Cette âme adorable des lis?
N’est-il plus un parfum qui reste
De la suavité céleste
Des jours où tu m’enveloppais
D’une vapeur surnaturelle,
Faite d’espoir, d’amour fidèle,
De béatitude et de paix?
The spent and suffering soul
The spent and suffering soul,
The sweet soul, the soul steeped
In the divine lilies I gathered
In the garden of your thoughts,
Where have the winds dispersed it,
This adorable lilies’ soul?
Does not a single scent remain
Of the heavenly softness
Of the days when you enclosed me
In a supernatural mist,
Made of hope, of faithful love,
Of bliss and of peace?
