Orphée,
je sais quel est ton mal.J'ai connu ton chagrin,
je connais ton mystère.Orphée,
le monde n'est qu'un balOù ta voix désormais demeure solitaire.Pourtant,
tu ne chant's que l'amour,Un amour qui sourit et t'éclaire.Hélas,
tes rêv's,
tes beaux discoursNe sont pas pour l'enfer où nous vivons nos jours.Orphée,
je sais quel est ton mal.J'ai connu ton destin,
tes joies et tes poèmes.Orphée,
le monde est un rivalQui méprise aujourd'hui le meilleur de toi-même.Oublie les charmes d'autrefois.Oublie tes dangereux "je t'aime"Leur temps n'est plus car d'autres loisS'imposent à nos cœurs sans amour et sans foi.Orphée,
il faut cacher tes larmes,Savoir où sont tes armesEn ce monde banal.Ta chance,
c'est d'entrer dans la danseEt d'être admis,
je pense,Parmi les gens du bal.Orphée,
si tu souris,
guéri,C'est qu'il ne reste rienD'un rêv' qui fut le mien.
