De mon amie (Carré, set by G. Bizet, M. Bonis) (The Lied and Art Song Texts Page: Texts and Translations to Lieder, mélodies, canzoni, and other classical vocal music)


De mon amie,
Fleur endormie,
Au fond du lac
Silencieux,
J'ai vu dans l'onde
Claire et profonde
Étinceler
Le front joyeux
Et les doux yeux!

Ma bien aimée
Est enfermée,
Dans un palais 
Dd'or et d'azur!
Je l'entends rire
Et je vois luire,
Sur le cristal
Du gouffre obscur.
Son regard pur!
