Nuage, nuage, Beau passant de l'air, Roulé dans l'orage, Fendu par l'éclair ; Couves-tu des flammes Dans ton flanc vermeil ? Portes-tu les âmes Filles du soleil ? Prends donc sur ton aile Mon âme avec toi ; Mon âme éternelle Est lasse de moi. Mon âme flétrie Qui vacille en bas, Sent que sa patrie Est là-bas ! là-bas ! Prends-donc... mais que dis-je ! À peine ma voix Te parle, ô prodige ! À peine je vois Rayonner ta robe En reflet confus, Le vent te dérobe, Passant ! tu n'es plus !
