by Léon-Émile Petitdidier (1839 - 1927), as Émile Blémont

Adieu Jeanne, ô Jeanne que j'aime !
Language: French (Français) 
Adieu Jeanne, ô Jeanne que j'aime !
Loin de moi, pense à nos amours !
  Je saurai de même
  Y songer toujours.

Entends-tu la mer qui m'appelle
En berçant mon bateau là-bas ?
  Jeanne, adieu ! Sois belle,
  Ne t'afflige pas !

Jamais, Jeanne, on ne fait naufrage,
Tant qu'on est aimé d'un cœur pur ;
  J'ai contre l'orage
  Tes grands yeux d'azur.

Dis mon nom, sur la grève grise,
A l'astre, au vent qui fuit, si prompt !
  L'étoile et la brise
  Me le rediront ;

Et vers moi, pars les nuits muettes,
Laisse aller tes baisers tremblants,
  Avec les mouettes
  Et les goëlands !
