Alfred de Musset: Chanson, Lorsque la coquette Espérance…

Alfred de Musset
(1810-1857)

 

Chanson: Lorsque la coquette Espérance…

Lorsque la coquette Espérance
Nous pousse le coude en passant,
Puis à tire-d’aile s’élance,
Et se retourne en souriant ;

Où va l’homme ? Où son coeur l’appelle.
L’hirondelle suit le zéphyr,
Et moins légère est l’hirondelle
Que l’homme qui suit son désir.

Ah ! fugitive enchanteresse,
Sais-tu seulement ton chemin ?
Faut-il donc que le vieux Destin
Ait une si jeune maîtresse !
