Un cygne avance sur l'eau tout entouré
Language:
French
Un cygne avance sur l'eau tout entouré
de lui-même, comme un glissant tableau;
ainsi à certains instants
un être que l'on aime est tout un espace mouvant.
Il se rapproche, doublé, comme ce cygne qui nage,
sur notre âme troublée...
qui à cet être ajoute la tremblante image
de bonheur et de doute.
