by Armand Lafrique (1858 - 1911)
Viens! mon bien‑aimé
Language: French (Français)
Les b'eaux jours vont enfin renaître, Le voici, l'avril embaumé! Un frisson d'amour me pénètre, Viens! mon bien-aimé! Ils ont fui, les longs soirs moroses, Déjà le jardin parfumé Se remplit d'oiseaux et de roses: Viens! mon bien-aimé! Soleil, de ta brûlante ivresse, J'ai senti mon coeur enflammé, Plus enivrante est ta caresse, Viens! mon bien-aimé! Tout se tait, de millions d'étoiles Le ciel profond est parsemé, Quand sur nous la nuit met ses voiles: Viens! mon bien-aimé!
