by Armand Silvestre (1837 - 1901)

J'ai mis, parmi ces fleurs, la fleur de...
Language: French (Français) 
J'ai mis, parmi ces fleurs, la fleur de ma pensée,
Et j'ai mêlé son âme à leurs parfums en chœur ; 
Rose mystique au ciel de mon rêve poussée, 
Elle a pris sa racine au profond de mon cœur. 
 -- J'ai mis, parmi ces fleurs, la fleur de ma pensée.

Garde toujours ces fleurs, hélas ! même fanées. 
Dans leurs cœurs odorants, garde, comme embaumé, 
L'immortel souvenir des tendresses données, 
Toi qui rouvris mon cœur que je croyais fermé. 
 -- Garde toujours ces fleurs, hélas ! même fanées !
