French text
Inhumaines qui, sans merci
Vous raillez de notre souci
Refrain: Aimez quand on vous aime, aimez quand on vous aime
Ingrats qui ne vous doutez pas,
Des rêves éclos sur vos pas
Sachez ô cruelles beautés
Que les jours d'aimer sont comptés
Sachez, amoureux inconstants
Que le bien d'aimer n'a qu'un temps !
Un même destin nous poursuit
Et notre folie est la même
C'est celle de fuir qui nous aime
C'est celle d'aimer qui nous fuit
