La Terre
 (Sung text for setting by C. Koechlin)
 See original
Language: French (Français) 
Soumets la Terre,
Les fleurs, les bois,
Lyre ! à ta voix,
A ton mystère.

Que rien n’altère
Tes saintes lois,
Soumets la Terre,
Les fleurs, les bois.

Dompte Cythère !
Charme à la fois
Le lys des rois
Et la panthère ;
Soumets la Terre !
