by Joseph Dieudonné Tagliafico (1821 - 1900)

Au revoir
Language: French (Français) 
Au revoir, au revoir ! Douce parole,
Croyance en l'avenir suprême espoir !
Ami, c'est le seul mot, qui de l'ex il console.
Ne dis jamais : adieu ! dis : au revoir !

Au revoir, au revoir ! De toute chose
C'est l'éternel désir. Sans le savoir
L'oiseau le chante au jour, le printemps à la rose,
Ne dis jamais : adieu ! dis : au revoir !

Au revoir, au revoir ! Qu'il t'en souvienne !
Quand de mon dernier jour viendra le soir,
Les yeux levés au ciel et ta main dans la mienne, 
Ne me dis pas: adieu ! dis : au revoir !
