Bell Song Lyrics by Léo Delibes

Lakmé

1883

Ou va la jeune Indoue
Filles des Parias
Quand la lune se joue
Dans le grand mimosas?
Elle court sur la mousse
Et ne se souvient pas
Que partout on repousse
L'enfant des parias;
Le long des lauriers roses
Revant de douce choses, Ah!
Elle passe sans bruit
Et riant a la nuit
Labas dans la foret plus sombre
Quel est ce voyageur perdu?
Autour de lui
Des yeux brillent dans l'ombre
Il marche encore au hasard, e perdu!
Les fauves rugissent de joie
Ils vont se jeter sur leur proie
Le jeune fille accourt
Et brave leur fureurs:
Elle a dans sa main la baguette
Ou tinte la clochette des charmeurs!
L'etranger la regarde
Elle reste eblouie
Il est plus beau que les Rajahs!
Il rougira, s'il sait qu'il doit
La vie a la fille des Parias
Mais lui, l'endormant dans un reve
Jusque dans le ciel il l'enleve
En lui disant: 'ta place et la!'
C'etait Vishnu, fils de Brahma!
Depuis ce jour au fond de bois
Le voyageur entend parfois
Le bruit leger de la baguette
Ou tinte la clochette des charmeurs!
