by Louis-Alexandre Fortoul (1870 - 1948), as Ludovic Fortolis

Celle à qui je rêve
Language: French (Français) 
Ô mon amour, serais-tu celle
A qui je rêve si souvent,
Dont la voix chaque nuit m'appelle
Dans la plainte étrange du vent,
Dont la blonde toison s'envole
Dans le frisselis des roseaux,
Dont la chanson naïve et folle
S'égrène aux cailloux des ruisseaux ?
Celle dont la robe à ramages
Traine aux quatre coins du ciel bleu,
Dans l'hermine des grands nuages
Que la bise effiloche un peu ?
De l'harmonie universelle
Es-tu le spectre décevant ?
Ô mon amour, serais-tu celle
A qui je rêve si souvent,
Dont la voix chaque nuit m'appelle
Dans la plainte étrange du vent ?
