                                                            L'AME EN PEINE                                                                                                     
                                                                                                                                                                                                
                                                                                                                                                                                                
                                                                                                                                                                                                 

                                                    Longtemps j'ai tant pleuré                                                                                                   

                                                    Que je n'ai plus de larmes                                                                                                  

                                                    Fontaine asséchée .......                                                                                                     

                                                    Tu as blessé mon âme   .                                                                                                   

                                                   J'ai le coeur déchiré,                                                                                                            

                                                    Morcelé et pantois ,                                                                                                            

                                                    Comme l'oiseau blessé ,                                                                                                    

                                                    Sur le rebord du toit     .                                                                                                       

                                                      Comme la barque affolée                                                                                                  

                                                      Sur le torrent avide   ,                                                                                                        

                                                      Qui va se fracasser                                                                                                           

                                                      Au fond des eaux  morbides   .                                                                                         

                                                      Et ces maux qui tournoient                                                                                                

                                                      Comme les ailes d'un moulin;                                                                                            

                                                      Ce , du soir au matin,                                                                                                         

                                                      Des jours maudits sans joie .                                                                                              

                                                                                                                                                                                                  
                                                                                                                                                                                                   
                                                      Pareil à un fantôme                                                                                                             

                                                      Qui erre dans la nuit,                                                                                                           

                                                      Je ne suis plus en somme                                                                                                  

                                                      Q'une âme dans la nuit!.....                                                                                                 

                                                                                                                                                                                                  
                                                                                                                                                                                                  
                                                                                                                                                                                                  
                                                                                                                                                                                                  
                               Mocotte
