by Émilie Arnal (1863 - 1935)
Aime‑moi
Language: French (Français)
Aime-moi puisque m'importe Tout ce qui te charmera, Ma main ouvrira ta porte Au rêve qui te plaira. J'ai mourais tout de ta vie, Tes amitiés, tes amours, Ta sagesse, ta folie, D'ombre même de tes jours. Je voudrais que ma tendresse Loin d'arrêter ton essor Par un nœud dur qui te blesse Se rendit plus libre et fort. Prends moi dans tes mains puissantes Mêle mon souffle et le tien, Puis, va!...Je veux que tu sentes Tout ce que vivre contient. Va! Je sais qu'au bout du monde Le désir poignant et doux Que mon cœur au tien répond Fera ployer tes genoux.
