Éveil
Language: French (Français) 
La vierge étoile est effacée ;
Le dernier rayon argentin
Fond dans l'aurore et la rosée.
Ouvre tes yeux: c'est le matin.

Entends-tu frôler ta fenêtre,
Ce frisson d'aile et de berceau ?
Un nid bruit, un vol veut naître ;
Ouvre tes volets: c'est l'oiseau.

Ton sein frémit et bat plus vite ;
Dans ton cœur il fait presque jour :
Un chant mystérieux t'invite...
Ouvre ton âme: c'est l'amour.
