Light
Language: French (Français)
Des larmes ont coulé D'un cœur secret et tendre Qui se crut exilé. Que n'ai-je su comprendre, Quand je m'en suis allé, Ce cœur secret et tendre. Une bouche a parlé, Triste douceur d'entendre Aujourd'hui révélé Ce cœur secret et tendre. Des larmes ont coulé, Que n'ai-je su comprendre... Mais pouvais-je m'attendre A ce ciel étoilé ?
