by Eugène Émile Paul Grindel (1895 - 1952), as Jean du Haut
La source coulant douce et nue
Language: French (Français)
La source coulant douce et nue
La nuit partout épanouie
La nuit où nous nous unissons
Dans une lutte faible et folle
*
Et la nuit qui nous fait injure
La nuit où se creuse le lit
Vide de la solitude
L'avenir d'une agonie.
