Ô rêveuse, pour que je plonge Au pur délice sans chemin, Sache, par un subtil mensonge, Garder mon aile dans ta main. Une fraîcheur de crépuscule Te vient à chaque battement Dont le coup prisonnier recule L'horizon délicatement. Vertige ! voici que frissonne L'espace comme un grand baiser Qui, fou de naître pour personne, Ne peut jaillir ni s'apaiser. Sens-tu le paradis farouche Ainsi qu'un rire enseveli Se couler du coin de ta bouche Au fond de l'unanime pli. Le sceptre des rivages roses Stagnants sur les soirs d'or, ce l'est Ce vol blanc fermé que tu poses Contre le feu d'un bracelet.

Oi unelmoijatar, jonka tahtoisin vajottaa puhtaaseen onneen ilman päämäärää huolehdi siitä että pidät minua kunnolla kädessäsi. Hämärän viileys kohtaa sinut jokaisella heilahduksellani, jossa horisontti herkästi heijastuu. Huumaudun; tunnen kylmiä väreitä, kuin kuin täydellisestä suudelmasta jota ei ole tarkoitettu kenellekään, jota ei voi omistaa eikä torjuakaan. Aistitko tämän hurjan paratiisin, se on kuin pidätetty nauru joka valuu suupielistäsi syvän yksimielisyyden vallassa. Punaisten rantojen valtikka kultaisten iltojen välillä, se on se on tämä suljettu viuhka, jonka olet asettanut rannerenkaasi tulta vasten.
