Rhyme Scheme: AABCCD AAEFFF F FFGFFG FFHFF| J' tais seul pr s des flots par une nuit d' toiles | A |
| Pas un nuage aux cieux sur les mers pas de voiles | A |
| Mes yeux plongeaient plus loin que le monde r el | B |
| Et les bois et les monts et toute la nature | C |
| Semblaient interroger dans un confus murmure | C |
| Les flots des mers les feux du ciel | D |
| - | |
| Et les toiles d'or l gions infinies | A |
| A voix haute voix basse avec mille harmonies | A |
| Disaient en inclinant leurs couronnes de feu | E |
| Et les flots bleus que rien ne gouverne et n'arr te | F |
| Disaient en recourbant l' cume de leur cr te | F |
| C'est le Seigneur le Seigneur Dieu | F |

| Ecstasy | F |
| - | |
| I was alone beside the sea upon a starry night | F |
| And not a cloud was in the sky and not a sail in sight | F |
| Beyond the limits of the world far stretched my raptured eye | G |
| And the forests and the mountains and nature all around | F |
| Seemed to unite in questioning in vast and mingled sound | F |
| The billows of the ocean and the splendour of the sky | G |
| - | |
| And the golden stars of heaven in their unnumbered crowd | F |
| WIth harmonies ten thousand with voices clear and loud | F |
| Replied as low they bended down their radiant crowns of flame | H |
| And the blue floods that nought has power to govern or arrest | F |
| Replied as low they bended down the foam upon their crest | F |
| 'The Lord our great Creator His glory we proclaim ' | - |
