  Roses ardentes
Dans l'immobile nuit,
C'est en vous que je chante
  Et que je suis.

En vous, étincelles,
À la cime des bois,
Que je suis éternelle
  Et que je vois.

  Ô mer profonde,
C'est en toi que mon sang
Renaît vague blonde,
  En flot dansant.

Comme elle chante
Dans ma voix,
L'âme longtemps murmurante
Des fontaines et des bois !

Air limpide du paradis,
Avec tes grappes de rubis,
Avec tes gerbes de lumière,
Avec tes roses et tes fruits ;

Quelle merveille en nous à cette heure !
Des paroles depuis des âges endormies
En des sons, en des fleurs.
Sur mes lèvres enfin prennent vie.

Et c'est en toi, force suprême,
  Soleil radieux,
Que mon âme elle-même
  Atteint son dieu !
