Les sanglots longs des violons de l'automne blessent mon cœur d'une langueur monotone. Tout suffocant et blême, quand sonne l'heure. je me souviens des jours anciens, et je pleure... Et je m'en vais au vent mauvais qui m'emporte de çà, de là, pareil à la feuille morte...

53. Il pleure dans mon cœur [sung text not yet checked]
Il pleure dans mon cœur Comme il pleut sur la ville ; Quelle est cette langueur Qui pénètre mon cœur ? Ô bruit doux de la pluie, Par terre et sur les toits! Pour un cœur qui s'ennuie, Ô le [chant]1 de la pluie ! Il pleure sans raison Dans [ce]2 cœur qui s'écœure. Quoi! nulle trahison ? ... [Ce]3 deuil est sans raison. C'est bien la pire peine, De ne savoir pourquoi Sans amour et sans haine Mon cœur a tant de peine!

54. Un grand sommeil noir [sung text not yet checked]
Un grand sommeil noir Tombe sur ma vie : Dormez, tout espoir, Dormez, toute envie ! Je ne vois plus rien, Je perds la mémoire Du mal et du bien... Ô la triste histoire ! Je suis un berceau Qu'une main balance Au creux d'un caveau : Silence, silence !
