MAX JACOB: Cimetière

JACOB_MAX22

Max Jacob
(1876 – 1944)

 

Cimetière

Si mon marin vous le chassez
au cimetière vous le mettrez,
rose blanche,
rose blanche et rose rouge.

Ma tombe, elle est comme un jardin,
comme un jardin rouge et blanche,
Le dimanche vous irez,
rose blanche,
vous irez vous promener,
rose blanche et blanc muguet,

Tante
Yvonne à la
Toussaint

une couronne en fer peint
elle apporte de son jardin
en fer peint avec des perles de satin,
rose rouge et blanc muguet.

Si
Dieu veut me ressusciter
au
Paradis je monterai,
rose blanche,
avec un nimbe doré,
rose blanche et blanc muguet.

Si mon marin revenait,
rose rouge et rose blanche,
sur ma tombe il vient auprès,
rose blanche et blanc muguet.

Souviens-toi de notre enfance,
rose blanche,
quand nous jouions sur le quai,
rose blanche et blanc muguet.
