2. En Arles [sung text not yet checked]
Language: French (Français)
Dans [Arle]1, où sont les Aliscams, Quand l'ombre est rouge, sous les roses, Et clair le temps, Prends garde à la douceur des choses. Lorsque tu sens battre sans cause Ton coeur trop lourd ; Et que se taisent les colombes : Parle tout bas, si c'est d'amour, Au bord des tombes.

3. Dans le jeune et frais cimetière [sung text not yet checked]
Language: French (Français)
Dans le jeune et frais cimetière Je suis assis sur une pierre. Aux arbres s' apaise le bruit Des oiseaux, car voici la nuit. Sans vous envier ni vous plaindre, Je regarde le jour s' éteindre Sur les tertres de croix semés, Ô pâles morts, où vous dormez.
