by George Doncieux (1856 - 1903)

Pour un baiser sur ta peau parfumée
Language: French (Français) 
Our translations:  ENG
 Pour un baiser sur ta peau parfumée,
 pour un baiser dans l'or de tes cheveux
 reçois mon âme toute, ô bien-aimée!
 Tu comblerais l'infini de mes voeux...
 Par un baiser!

 Pour un baiser distillé dans tes lèvres,
 profond, tenace et lent comme un adieu,
 souffrir le mal d'amour, et de ses fiévres brûler,
 languir et mourir peu à peu...
 dans un baiser!
