Un beau jour, ou peut-etre une nuit,
Près d'un lac, je m'étais endormie,
Quand soudain, semblant crever le ciel,
Et venant de nulle part,
Surgit un aigle noir.
• Translation: One fine day, or perhaps one night,
Near a lake,when I'm sleeping,
Suddenly, the skies cave in,
And out of nowhere,
Surges an eagle, black.
