Cantique à l’épouse Lyrics by Ernest Chausson

Deux Mélodies, Op. 36

0

Épouse au front lumineux
Voici que le soir descend
Et qu'il jette dans tes yeux
Des rayons couleur de sang
Le crépuscule féerique
T'environne d'un feu rose
Viens me chanter un cantique
Beau comme une sombre rose
Ou plutôt ne chante pas
Viens te coucher sur mon coeur
Laisse?moi baiser tes bras
Pâles comme l'aube en fleur;
La nuit de tes yeux m'attire
Nuit frémissante, mystique
Douce comme ton sourire
Heureux et mélancolique
Et soudain la profondeur
Du passé religieux
Le mystère et la grandeur
De notre amour sérieux
S'ouvre au fond de nos pensées
Comme une vallée immense
Où des forêts délaissées
Rêvent dans un grand silence
