by Paul Barthélemy Jeulin (1863 - 1936), as Paul Gravollet

Douces larmes
Language: French (Français) 
Par tes baisers effacées,
Les larmes que j’ai versées
Rient à présent dans mes yeux !
Et maintenant que tu m’aimes,
Mes tourments, mes douleurs mêmes
Ont la doceur des a veux !

Tu remplis si bien mavie,
Que je demeure ravie
De ne rien voir que par toi !
Le pays qui nous rassemble,
Si triste et désert qu’il semble,
Est le paradis pour moi !

Oh! quel divin esclavage :
J’aborde sur le rivage,
Par ton printemps embaumé !
Depuis des mois je t’adore !
Et je t’aime plus encore
D’avoir souffert de t’aimer !
