Language: French (Français) 
Le temps est court, ô monde!
Pour finir notre tâche:
A l'oeuvre donc, puisqu'il est encor jour;
Le temps est court, âme triste et souffrante.

Je veux t'aimer:
c'est le vœu de ma vie et le besoin de mon cœur;
Je veux t'aimer,
car la vie est amère pour moi sans toi;
Je veux t'aimer:
c'est de ton amour même que mon âme vivra.

Nous chantons et le temps s'enfuit.

Composition:

    Set to music by Edward Rushton , no title, 1996 [ mezzo-soprano and piano ], from Les Psaumes de 1895, no. 3
