Partout pleurs, sanglots, cris fun\u00e8bres.
\n\ufeffPourquoi dors-tu dans les t\u00e9n\u00e8bres ?
\n\ufeffJe ne veux pas que tu sois mort.
\n\ufeffPourquoi dors-tu dans les t\u00e9n\u00e8bres ?
\n\ufeffCe n\u2019est pas l\u2019instant o\u00f9 l\u2019on dort.
\nLa p\u00e2le Libert\u00e9 g\u00eet sanglante \u00e0 ta porte.
\n\ufeffTu le sais, toi mort, elle est morte.
\n\ufeffVoici le chacal sur ton seuil,
\n\ufeffVoici les rats et les belettes,
\nPourquoi t\u2019es-tu laiss\u00e9 lier de bandelettes ?
\n\ufeffIls te mordent dans ton cercueil !
\n\ufeffDe tous les peuples on pr\u00e9pare
\n\ufeffLe convoi\u2026 \u2014
\n\ufeffLazare ! Lazare ! Lazare !
\n\ufeffL\u00e8ve-toi !<\/p>\n
\ufeffParis sanglant, au clair de lune,
\n\ufeffR\u00eave sur la fosse commune ;
\n\ufeffGloire au g\u00e9n\u00e9ral Trestaillon !
\n\ufeffPlus de presse, plus de tribune !
\n\ufeffQuatrevingt-neuf porte un b\u00e2illon.
\nLa R\u00e9volution, terrible \u00e0 qui la touche,
\n\ufeffEst couch\u00e9e \u00e0 terre ! un Cartouche
\n\ufeffPeut ce qu\u2019aucun titan ne put.
\n\ufeffEscobar rit d\u2019un rire oblique.
\nOn voit tra\u00eener sur toi, g\u00e9ante R\u00e9publique,
\n\ufeffTous les sabres de Lilliput.
\n\ufeffLe juge, marchand en simarre,
\n\ufeffVend la loi\u2026 \u2014
\n\ufeffLazare ! Lazare ! Lazare !
\n\ufeffL\u00e8ve-toi !<\/p>\n
\ufeffSur Milan, sur Vienne punie,
\n\ufeffSur Rome \u00e9trangl\u00e9e et b\u00e9nie,
\n\ufeffSur Pesth, tortur\u00e9 sans r\u00e9pit,
\n\ufeffLa vieille louve Tyrannie,
\n\ufeffFauve et joyeuse, s\u2019accroupit.
\nElle rit ; son repaire est orn\u00e9 d\u2019amulettes ;
\n\ufeffElle marche sur des squelettes,
\n\ufeffDe la Vistule au Tanaro ;
\n\ufeffElle a ses petits qu\u2019elle couve.
\nQui la nourrit ? qui porte \u00e0 manger \u00e0 la louve ?
\n\ufeffC\u2019est l\u2019\u00e9v\u00eaque, c\u2019est le bourreau.
\n\ufeffQui s\u2019allaite \u00e0 son flanc barbare ?
\n\ufeffC\u2019est le roi\u2026 \u2014
\n\ufeffLazare ! Lazare ! Lazare !
\n\ufeffL\u00e8ve-toi !<\/p>\n
\ufeffJ\u00e9sus, parlant \u00e0 ses ap\u00f4tres,
\n\ufeffDit : Aimez-vous les uns les autres.
\n\ufeffEt voil\u00e0 bient\u00f4t deux mille ans
\n\ufeffQu\u2019il appelle nous et les n\u00f4tres,
\n\ufeffEt qu\u2019il ouvre ses bras sanglants.
\nRome commande et r\u00e8gne au nom du doux proph\u00e8te.
\n\ufeffDe trois cercles sacr\u00e9s est faite
\n\ufeffLa tiare du Vatican ;
\n\ufeffLe premier est une couronne,
\nLe second est le n\u0153ud des gibets de V\u00e9rone,
\n\ufeffEt le troisi\u00e8me est un carcan.
\n\ufeffMasta\u00ef met cette tiare
\n\ufeffSans effroi\u2026 \u2014
\n\ufeffLazare ! Lazare ! Lazare !
\n\ufeffL\u00e8ve-toi !<\/p>\n
\ufeffIls b\u00e2tissent des prisons neuves ;
\n\ufeff\u00d4 dormeur sombre, entends les fleuves
\n\ufeffMurmurer, teints de sang vermeil ;
\n\ufeffEntends pleurer les pauvres veuves,
\n\ufeff\u00d4 noir dormeur au dur sommeil !
\nMartyrs, adieu ! le vent souffle, les pontons flottent ;
\n\ufeffLes m\u00e8res au front gris sanglotent ;
\n\ufeffLeurs fils sont en proie aux vainqueurs ;
\n\ufeffElles g\u00e9missent sur la route ;
\nLes pleurs qui de leurs yeux s\u2019\u00e9chappent goutte \u00e0 goutte
\n\ufeffFiltrent en haine dans nos c\u0153urs.
\n\ufeffLes juifs triomphent, groupe avare
\n\ufeffEt sans foi\u2026 \u2014
\n\ufeffLazare ! Lazare ! Lazare !
\n\ufeffL\u00e8ve-toi !<\/p>\n
\ufeffMais, il semble qu\u2019on se r\u00e9veille !
\n\ufeffEst-ce toi que j\u2019ai dans l\u2019oreille,
\n\ufeffBourdonnement du sombre essaim ?
\n\ufeffDans la ruche fr\u00e9mit l\u2019abeille ;
\n\ufeffJ\u2019entends sourdre un vague tocsin.
\nLes c\u00e9sars, oubliant qu\u2019il est des g\u00e9monies,
\n\ufeffS\u2019endorment dans les symphonies,
\n\ufeffDu lac Baltique au mont Etna ;
\n\ufeffLes peuples sont dans la nuit noire ;
\nDormez, rois ; le clairon dit aux tyrans : victoire !
\n\ufeffEt l\u2019orgue leur chante : hosanna !
\n\ufeffQui r\u00e9pond \u00e0 cette fanfare ?
\n\ufeffLe beffroi\u2026 \u2014
\n\ufeffLazare ! Lazare ! Lazare !
\n\ufeffL\u00e8ve-toi !<\/p>\n
