Chanson de là‑haut
 (Sung text for setting by E. Varèse)
 Matches base text
Language: French (Français) 
La Seine dort sous l'ombre de ses ponts.
Je vois tourner la terre
Et je sonne mon clairon
Vers toutes les mers.

Sur le chemin de ton parfum
Toutes les abeilles et les paroles s'en vont.
Reine de l'Aube des Pôles,
Rose des Vents que fane l'Automne !
Dans ma tête un oiseau chante toute l'année.

Composition:

    Set to music by Edgard Varèse (1883 - 1965), "Chanson de là-haut", 1921, from Offrandes, no. 1
