L'amour
 (Sung text for setting by B. Godard)
 Matches base text
Language: French (Français) 
Oui, je t'aime, comme un bel ange
Échappé du divin séjour.
Comme le bouton qui se change
En fleur à l'aube d'un beau jour;
Je t'aime, comme l'espérance
Qui renaît sous l'horizon noir,
Je t'aime, comme le silence
Que froisse la brise du soir;
Je t'aime, comme l'églantine
Qui se penche avec majesté;
Comme la suave aubépine
Comme l'ormeau que j'ai planté;
Je t'aime enfin comme mon âme
Aime d'amour le beau ciel bleu,
Comme le chérubin en flamme
À jamais aimera son Dieu!
