Text | English translation:
If my verses had wings [by Victor Hugo]

My verses would fly, fragile and gentle,
To your beautiful garden,
If my verses had wings
Like a bird!

They would fly like sparks
To your cherry heart,
If my verses had wings
Like my spirit.

Pure and faithful, to your side
They would hasten night and day
If my verses had wings
Like love.
