XV

I dedicate to your tears, to your smile, my

gentlest thoughts, those I tell you, those also

that remain undefined and too deep to tell.

I dedicate to your tears, to your smile, to your

whole soul, my soul, with its tears and its

smiles and its kiss.

See, the dawn whitens the ground that is the

colour of lees of wine; shadowy bonds seem to

slip and glide away with melancholy; the water

of the ponds grows bright and sifts its noise;

the grass glitters and the flowers open, and the

golden woods free themselves from the night.

Oh! what if we could one day enter thus into the

full light; oh, what if we could one day, with

conquering cries and lofty prayers, with no more

veils upon us and no more remorse in us, oh! what

if we could one day enter together into lucid

love.
