by Henri Vangeon (1875 - 1944), as Henri Ghéon

Couronnement au Ciel
Language: French (Français) 
Choose for Diff
Ici, le poète, ébloui
Renonce à peindre ce qu'il rêve ; 
À sa prière, qui s'élève,
Il abandonne son esprit.
Il ne sait rien que de ce monde ; 
Ses yeux ne se sont pas ouverts 
Aux vibrations dont l'éther 
Propage, autour de Dieu, les ondes... 
Il s'arrête et songe... à l'effroi 
De la servante aux pieds du Roi 
Dont le front dévoilé rayonne, 
À la déchirante douceur
Qui soudainement prend au cœur 
La Mère que son Fils couronne.
