by Armand Silvestre (1837 - 1901)

J'ai caché la rose en pleurs
Language: French (Français) 
J'ai caché la rose en pleurs,
Les larmes qu'il faut qu'on ignore
Pour que la rosée et l'aurore
Les confondent avec les leurs.

Puissent-elles à ses couleurs
Apporter plus d'éclat encore,
Et puisse ta main que j'adore
La trouver belle entre les fleurs.

Entre toutes, la rose est celle
Dont l'âme jalouse recèle
Le mieux ses parfums au soleil

Et de qui la lèvre embaumée
Garde le plus d'ombre enfermée,
Sous son beau sourire vermeil.
