Parle-moi, que ta voix me touche !
Chaque parole sur ta bouche
Est un écho mélodieux.
Quand ta voix meurt dans mon oreille,
Mon âme résonne et s'éveille,
Comme un temple à la voix des cieux.
...
Un son qui sur ta bouche expire,
Une plainte un demi-sourire,
Mon cœur entend tout sans effort :
Le souffle même du zéphire
Devient un ravissant accord.

Speak to me, so that your voice touches me!
Every word from your mouth
Is a melodious echo.
When your voice dies in my ear,
My soul resonates and awakens
Like a temple to the voice of heaven.
...
A sound that dies on your lips,
A lament with a half-smile --
my heart listens to everything without effort:
even the breath of a breeze
becomes a delightful chord.
