Bonheur
Language:
French
Ô saisons, ô châteaux,
Quelle âme est sans défaut?
Ô saisons, ô châteaux,
J'ai fait la magique étude
Du bonheur,que nul n'élude.
Ô vivre lui, chaque fois
Que chante son coq gaulois.
Mais! je n'aurais plus d'envie,
Il s'est chargé de ma vie.
Ce charme! il prit âme et corps,
et dispersa tous efforts.
Que comprendre à ma parole?
Il fait qu'elle fuit et vole!
Ô saisons, ô châteaux!
Et, si le malheur m'entraîne,
Sa disgrâce m'est certaine.
Il faut que son dédain, las!
Me livre au plus prompt trépas!
Ô Saisons, ô Châteaux!
