Race d'Abel, dors, bois et mange;
Dieu te sourit complaisamment.
Race de Caïn, dans la fange
Rampe et meurs misérablement.
Race d'Abel, ton sacrifice
Flatte le nez du Séraphin!
Race de Caïn, ton supplice
Aura-t-il jamais une fin?
Race d'Abel, vois tes semailles
Et ton bétail venir à bien;
Race de Caïn, tes entrailles
Hurlent la faim comme un vieux chien.
Race d'Abel, chauffe ton ventre
À ton foyer patriarcal;
Race de Caïn, dans ton antre
Tremble de froid, pauvre chacal!
Race d'Abel, tu croîs et broutes
Comme les punaises des bois!
Race de Caïn, sur les routes
Traîne ta famille aux abois.
Ah! race d'Abel, ta charogne
Engraissera le sol fumant!
Race de Caïn, ta besogne
N'est pas faite suffisamment;
Race d'Abel, voici ta honte:
Le fer est vaincu par l'épieu!
Race de Caïn, au ciel monte,
Et sur la terre jette Dieu!
