La goutte d'eau


Si je tenais la goutte d'eau
Qui a fait déborder l'orage
De la grisaille des nuages
Donnant quarante jours de pluie

Si je tenais la goutte d'eau
Je ferais de ce bled sans ombre
Une oasis unique au monde
Pour que la force lui soit en vie

Et en vertu de ce cadeau
J'inviterais Dieu à ma table
Ainsi que la rose des sables
A partager cette eau de vie

Je servirais l'eau à pleins seaux
Je désaltérerais la chance
Cette assoiffée de jouissances
Qui donne au rêve du génie

Si je tenais la goutte d'eau
Qui a fait déborder l'orage
Par la gargouille des nuages
Donnant quarante jours de pluie

Si je tenais la goutte d'eau
Les sentiers deviendraient des fleurs
Et je t'apporterais la preuve
Qu'un don du ciel ne se tarit

Mes fardeaux seraient des radeaux
Le futur vivrait sans histoire
Et je t'inviterais à croire
Que l'avenir vient d'un berceau

Toi qui acceptes le combat
D'une existence difficile
Entre les fils et le reptile
Où l'abondance est hors la loi

Si je tenais la goutte d'eau
Les sources auraient leur sanctuaire
Pour rappeler que sur la Terre
L'eau aide à faire de vieux os

Et si j'avais cette goutte d'eau
J'enracinerais l'espérance
Pour récolter la providence
Et l'espoir de sauver ma peau

Car j'ai peur que le manque d'eau
Aggrave encore l'insupportable
Puisque la soif est indomptable
Et la pénurie un fléau

Quand l'horizon retiendra l'eau
Ma terre deviendra une île
Et ce bonheur sera utile
Pour sortir la tête de l'eau

Et ce bonheur sera fertile
Car je tiendrai la goutte d'eau
