Toy qui plonges ton coeur
Language: French (Français)
Available translation(s): ITA
Toy qui plonges ton coeur au profond de ce Monde, Sçais ti ce que tu es? le sapin téméraire Qui saute sur le dos de la furieuse onde, Eslancé par les coups d'un tourbillon contraire. Raison, ton gouvernail est pieça cheut au fond. Tu erres vagabond où le vent variable De tes plaisirs t'emporte, et qui en fin te rompt Contre le roc cruel d'une mort misérable.
