Respire, poème invisible !

(Sung text translation for setting by E. Janson)

See original

Language: French (Français) after the German (Deutsch)

Respire, poème invisible !
Constamment autour du propre
Être, pur espace échangé.
 Contrepoids,
dans lequel je nais rythmiquement.

 ... 

Me reconnais-tu, air, toi, encore plein
  des lieux jadis miens ?
Toi, autrefois écorce lisse,
Arrondi et feuille de mes paroles.

Note: the text above is taken from stanzas 1,4 of the original text.
