Comme tout meurt vite, la rose Déclose, Et les frais manteaux diaprés Des prés; Les longs soupirs, les bienaimées, Fumées! On voit dans ce monde léger Changer, Plus vite que les flots des grèves, Nos rêves, Plus vite que le givre en fleurs, Nos coeurs! À vous l'on se croyait fidèle, Cruelle, Mais hélas! les plus longs amours Sont courts! Et je dis en quittant vos charmes, Sans larmes, Presqu'au moment de mon aveu, Adieu!

Poiché tutto muore in fretta, la rosa appassisce, E i freschi mantelli iridescenti dei prati; i lunghi sospiri, gli amato, si dissolvono! Si vede, in questo mondo impalpabile, che cambiano, più veloci delle onde dei fiumi, i nostri sogni, più veloce della brina sui fiori i nostri cuori! A voi io mi credevo fedele, crudele, ma, ahimé, anche i più lunghi amori sono brevi! E io dico, lasciando il vostro fascino, senza lacrime, quasi al momento d'una mia confessione, Addio!
