by Robert H. de Vandelbourg (b. 1870)

Béatitude
Language: French (Français) 
Beauté du soir en tes jardins ...
Murmures de l'eau qui se pâme ...
Douceur du vent ... 
Les parfums épars des cheminsa
Déjà se glissent vers mon âme
Comme en rêvant.

Irons-nous, c'est la fin du jour,
Sur la mer que la lune irise,
Car, sans ramer,
Je voudrais bercer mon amour
Au grédes flots et de la brise,
Pour mieux t'aimer.

Ton chant s'élèvera si pur
Dans l'immensité de l'espace,
Qu'au fond des cieux
Les astres tremblant dans l'azur
Sembleront implorer ta grâce
Et tes aveux.
