Cors de chasse

Guillaume Apollinaire 1880 (Rome) – 1918 (Paris)

Notre histoire est noble et tragique
Comme le masque d'un tyran
Nul drame hasardeux ou magique
Aucun détail indifférent
Ne rend notre amour pathétique
 
Et Thomas de Quincey buvant
L'opium poison doux et chaste
À sa pauvre Anne allait rêvant
Passons passons puisque tout passe
Je me retournerai souvent
 
Les souvenirs sont cors de chasse
Dont meurt le bruit parmi le vent
