Cors de chasse
Language: French (Français)
Notre histoire est noble et tragique Comme le masque d'un tyran Nul drame hasardeux ou magique Aucun détail indifférent Ne rend notre amour pathétique Et Thomas de Quincey buvant L'opium poison doux et chaste À sa pauvre Anne allait rêvant Passons passons puisque tout passe Je me retournerai souvent Les souvenirs sont cors de chasse Dont meurt le bruit parmi le vent
