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