Ne dites pas : mourir ; dites : na\u00eetre. Croyez.
\nOn voit ce que je vois et ce que vous voyez ;
\nOn est l\u2019homme mauvais que je suis, que vous \u00eates ;
\nOn se rue aux plaisirs, aux tourbillons, aux f\u00eates ;
\nOn t\u00e2che d\u2019oublier le bas, la fin, l\u2019\u00e9cueil,
\nLa sombre \u00e9galit\u00e9 du mal et du cercueil ;
\nQuoique le plus petit vaille le plus prosp\u00e8re ;
\nCar tous les hommes sont les fils du m\u00eame p\u00e8re ;
\nIls sont la m\u00eame larme et sortent du m\u00eame oeil.
\nOn vit, usant ses jours \u00e0 se remplir d\u2019orgueil ;
\nOn marche, on court, on r\u00eave, on souffre, on penche, on tombe,
\nOn monte. Quelle est donc cette aube ? C\u2019est la tombe.
\nO\u00f9 suis-je ? Dans la mort. Viens ! Un vent inconnu
\nVous jette au seuil des cieux. On tremble ; on se voit nu,
\nImpur, hideux, nou\u00e9 des mille noeuds fun\u00e8bres
\nDe ses torts, de ses maux honteux, de ses t\u00e9n\u00e8bres ;
\nEt soudain on entend quelqu\u2019un dans l\u2019infini
\nQui chante, et par quelqu\u2019un on sent qu\u2019on est b\u00e9ni,
\nSans voir la main d\u2019o\u00f9 tombe \u00e0 notre \u00e2me m\u00e9chante
\nL\u2019amour, et sans savoir quelle est la voix qui chante.
\nOn arrive homme, deuil, gla\u00e7on, neige ; on se sent
\nFondre et vivre ; et, d\u2019extase et d\u2019azur s\u2019emplissant,
\nTout notre \u00eatre fr\u00e9mit de la d\u00e9faite \u00e9trange
\nDu monstre qui devient dans la lumi\u00e8re un ange.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"parent":0,"template":"","meta":{"inline_featured_image":false,"site-sidebar-layout":"default","site-content-layout":"","ast-site-content-layout":"default","site-content-style":"default","site-sidebar-style":"default","ast-global-header-display":"","ast-banner-title-visibility":"","ast-main-header-display":"","ast-hfb-above-header-display":"","ast-hfb-below-header-display":"","ast-hfb-mobile-header-display":"","site-post-title":"","ast-breadcrumbs-content":"","ast-featured-img":"","footer-sml-layout":"","ast-disable-related-posts":"","theme-transparent-header-meta":"default","adv-header-id-meta":"","stick-header-meta":"default","header-above-stick-meta":"","header-main-stick-meta":"","header-below-stick-meta":"","astra-migrate-meta-layouts":"set","ast-page-background-enabled":"default","ast-page-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"ast-content-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}}},"annee":[224],"poems-book":[225],"poemes-theme":[349,330],"poete":[206],"class_list":["post-3352","poemes","type-poemes","status-publish","hentry","annee-224","poems-book-les-contemplations","poemes-theme-condition-humaine","poemes-theme-mort","poete-victor-hugo"],"yoast_head":"\n
