Song Cycle by Robert Caby (1905 - 1992)

1. Sur la pointe d'une fougère  [sung text not yet checked]

Language: French (Français) 
Sur la pointe d’une fougère, 
le regard du soleil couchant se pose ou sur la fleur 
qui a un cœur de miel et une couronne d’acanthe, 
et sur moi qui ne sais que souffrir, 
j’ai senti quelquefois la main d’un ami.

Language: French (Français) 
Les poissons sont des yeux qui oublient.
Les barques sont des yeux. Les yeux sont
