by Pauline Mary Tarn (1877 - 1909), as Renée Vivien

Pour mon cœur
Language: French (Français) 
Mystérieux, amer et terrible, ô mon cœur,
Eloigne enfin de toi la haine et la rancœur !
Sache combien est grand ce bienfait qu'on te donne
De pouvoir pardonner, ô mon cœur ! et pardonne !
Ne garde plus l'amer souvenir des joies dues !
Et qu'il soit comme un  mot effacé sur les nues !
Sois  léger et sois doux comme l'ombre d'une aile,
Ô mauvais cœur, tenace et méchant et fidèle !
Ô mon cœur ! exhalant. dans un vaste soupir,
Le pardon retenu, sache enfin t'attendrir !
