by Louis Duchosal (1862 - 1901)

Lied
Language: French (Français) 
C’est le temps d’hiver, pauvre cœur ;
Dans le ciel tendu de ténèbres
Flotte un rais de lune moqueur ;
C’est le temps d’hiver, pauvre cœur,
Les glas[1] tintent, lents et funèbres.

C’est le temps d’hiver, pauvre cœur ;
Au lointain, stridentes et brèves.
Des voix graves chantent en chœur ;
C’est le temps d’hiver, pauvre cœur
Qui portes le deuil de tes rêves.

C’est le temps d’hiver, pauvre cœur
Où l’Amour, comme en une tombe.
Gît, tué par le Sort moqueur ;
C’est le temps d’hiver, pauvre cœur :
La neige des souvenirs tombe…

Confirmed with Chrestomathie française du xixe siècle, II, Poètes, ed. by Henri Sensine, Paris, Payot, 1914, page 668.
