Ode bachique
Language: French (Français)
À toi Lyæos, Glorieux Bacchos ! Dans l’ardeur qui me déchire, Le cœur plein de toi, Je t’offre, ô mon roi, Ma fureur et mon délire ! Pour t’accueillir Je vais cueillir La menthe, Et dans les bois Je suis ta voix Charmante. Verse, ô jeune dieu, Ton nectar de feu Dans le cœur de ton amante !
