## The words

La lune blanche Luit dans les bois ;  
De chaque branche Part une voix Sous la ramée  
O bien aimée.  
L’étang reflète, Profond miroir,  
La silhouette Du saule noir Où le vent  
pleure Rêvons ! c’est l’heure  
Un vaste et tendre A paisement Semble  
descendre Du firmament Que l’astre irise  
C’est l’heure exquise,
