by Wilhelm Albert Włodzimierz Apolinary Kostrowicki (1880 - 1918), as Guillaume Apollinaire

Yeux brûlants dans mon coeur vous...
Language: French (Français) 
Yeux brûlants dans mon coeur vous laissâtes deux trous
Vous avez yeux aimés de vagues reflets roux
On vous prendrait pour deux oiseaux qui se ressemblent
Noirs oiseaux lourds de nuit yeux d'amour lourds de mort
Naîfs comme au beau temps des dames de Saint-Maur
Et tristes quand aux cils de troubles larmes trermblent
