by Louis-Ernest Crevel de Charlemagne (1806 - 1882)

Le chant du bandit
Language: French (Français) 
Que les amans chérissent
le silence des nuits
que les bois retentissent
de leurs tristes ennuis !
Les vents et la tempête
qui grondent sur ma tête
dans mes sombres forêts
ont pour moi plus d'attraits !

Que sous le verd feuillage
un couple langoureux
écoute le ramage
du rossignol joyeux.
Les vents etc.

Que le poète encore
vienne d'un air rêveur
de la naissante aurore
admirer la splendeur.
Les vents etc.
