by Maurice Maeterlinck (1862 - 1949)

Nous voici dans la partie du jardin
Language: French (Français) 
Nous voici dans la partie du jardin 
qui s'étend derrière la maison. 
Ils n'y viennent jamais. 
Les portes sont de l'autre côté. -- 
Elles sont fermées et les volets sont clos. 
Mais il n'y a pas de volets par ici 
et j'ai vu de la lumière . . . 
Oui; ils veillent encore sous la lampe. 
Il est heureux qu'ils ne nous aient pas entendus; 
la mère ou les jeunes filles seraient sorties peut-être, 
et alors, qu'aurait-il fallu faire? . . .
