Les feuilles s’ouvraient sur le bord des branches, | |||
délicatement. | |||
Les cloches tintaient, légères et franches, | |||
dans le ciel clément. | |||
Rythmique et fervent comme une antienne, | |||
ce lointain appel | |||
me remémorait la blancheur chrétienne | |||
des fleurs de l’autel. | |||
Ces cloches parlaient d’heureuses années, | |||
et, dans le grand bois, | |||
semblaient reverdir les feuilles fanées, | |||
des jours d’autrefois.}} | |||

''singing translation by Isabella G Parker'' | |||
The leaves on the green boughs gently are swinging, | |||
op'ning silently | |||
The bells with their music airily ringing | |||
'Neath the smiling sky | |||
Slowly breathing like an anthem of warning | |||
Afar through the air | |||
Bringing mem'ry sweet of lilies adorning | |||
Holy altar fair | |||
Those bells tell of happy years now o'ershaded | |||
And with solemn tone | |||
Once more they refresh the leaves that are faded, | |||
The years that are gone.}} | |||
