Avec ma pauvre plainte de mère,
Que suis-je là devant, mon Aimé ?
Un Dieu qui meurt... oui ! le grand mystère !
Je vois un Fils, qui me va quitter...
Qu'aucun rayon d'en haut n'adoucisse
Une douleur que toute je veux !
À ma douleur je fais le sacrifice
De la Divinité de mon Dieu.
Il voit mes pleurs et me les pardonne ;
J'accepterai l'enfant qu'il me donne
À consoler dans notre maison...
Mais c'est trop peu pour tenir sa place :
Entre mes bras qui plus ne l'embrassent
Tous ses enfants, les hommes viendront.
