On a compter les lendemains
Qui nous restaient mais incertains
On s'est perdu sur le chemin
Une inconnue dans le refrain
De grands sourires n'y changeraient rien
Car le début jouait la fin
A l'origine on n'était rien
Juste une ébauche ou un dessin
Des rêves suivis de petits points
Au coin des rues un doux parfum
Suprême idylle main dans la main
De belles photos on se souvient
Puisqu'on se perd pour mieux s'unir
Puisqu'on ne tient plus au présent
Le moindre souffle nous détruit
Et nous disperse avec les vents
Comme fou à lier comme deux enfants
Comme une fleur à son printemps
On fuyait l'ombre pour mieux s'étendre
Sur nos nuages en évidence
Comblés d'amour et d'innocence
Au souvenir de nos vingt ans
Si l'on s'accorde un peu de temps
Pour réfléchir tout simplement
Avant de n'être que des perdants
Au goût amer qui s'en ressent
Avant l'orage qui lui n'attend
Au grand jamais le temps d'attendre
Puisqu'on se perd pour mieux s'unir
Puisqu'on ne tient plus au présent
Le moindre souffle nous détruit
Et nous disperse avec les vents
Tous ces mensonges que l'on déguise
Nous laisse un beau jour sans défense
Puisqu'on se perd pour mieux s'unir
Puisque l'on s'aime toujours autant
Wystan Hugh Auden (1907-1973) was one of the most important poets of the 20th century. Born in York, England, Auden distinguished himself for his ability to combine a refined and complex language with social and political themes of great relevance. Influenced by modernism and classical poetry, Auden explored themes such as alienation, war, religion, and love in works that profoundly marked English literature of his time. Among his most celebrated pieces are "September 1, 1939", "The Age of Anxiety" and "Funeral Blues". Auden collaborated with several composers, including Benjamin Britten, to create theatrical works and chamber music. His influence on contemporary poetry has been enormous, and his work continues to be studied and appreciated worldwide.
