Original text and translations
French text
- Mes vers fuiraient, doux et frêles,
- Vers votre jardin si beau,
- Si mes vers avaient des ailes,
- Comme l’oiseau.
- Ils voleraient, étincelles,
- Vers votre foyer qui rit,
- Si mes vers avaient des ailes,
- Comme l’esprit.
- Près de vous, purs et fidèles,
- Ils accourraient, nuit et jour,
- Si mes vers avaient des ailes,
- Comme l’amour!
