Lyrics
Dans un sommeil que charmait ton image
Je rêvais le bonheur, ardent mirage
Tes yeux étaint plus doux, ta voix pure et sonore
Tu rayonnais comme un ciel éclairé par l'aurore;
Tu m'appelais et je quittais la terre
Pour m'enfuir avec toi vers la lumière
Les cieux pour nous entr'ouvraient leurs nues
Splendeurs inconnues, lueurs divines entre vues
Hélas! Hélas, triste réveil des songes
Je t'appelle, ô nuit, rends moi tes mensonges
Reviens, reviens radieuse
Reviens, ô nuit mystérieuse!
Translation:
In a slumber which held your image spellbound
I dreamt of happiness, passionate mirage,
Your eyes were softer, your voice pure and sonorous,
You shone like a sky lit up by the dawn;
You called me and I left the earth
To run away with you towards the light,
The skies opened their clouds for us,
Unknown splendours, divine flashes glimpsed,
Alas! Alas! sad awakening from dreams!
I call you, O night, give me back your lies,
Return, return radiant,
Return, O mysterious night.

Pour m'enfuir avec toi vers la lumière
Les cieux pour nous entr'ouvraient leurs nues
Splendeurs inconnues, lueurs divines entre vues
Hélas! Hélas, triste réveil des songes

Reviens, reviens radieuse
