by Edmond Haraucourt (1856 - 1941)

En l'âge de raison, traverser la folie
Language: French (Français) 
En l'âge de raison, traverser la folie
  D'un bel amour presque enfantin, 
  Et revenir au temps lointain 
  De la jeune mélancolie ! 

Je te dois cette ivresse, ô toi qui n'en sais rien : 
  Car ta jeunesse a fait la mienne, 
  Mais je mourrai sans qu'il advienne
  Que mon bonheur fasse le tien.
