2. Le Fil d'or  [sung text not yet checked]

Subtitle: Boléro

Language: French (Français) 
J'allais partir ; doña Balbine
Se lève et prend à sa bobine
          Un long fil d'or ;
À mon bouton elle le noue,
Et puis me dit, baisant ma joue :
          « Restez encor !

« Par l'un des bouts ce fil, trop frêle
Pour retenir un infidèle,
          Tient à mon cœur...
[Si]1 vous partez, mon cœur s'arrache :
Un nœud si fort à vous m'attache,
          Ô mon vainqueur !

-- « Pourquoi donc prendre à ta bobine
Pour me fixer, doña Balbine,
          Un fil doré ?
À [ton lit]2 qu'un cheveu m'enchaîne,
Se brisât-il, sois-en certaine,
          Je resterai ! »
