French.png French text

Lorsque au soleil couchant les rivières sont roses,
Et qu’un tiède frisson court sur les champs de blé,
Un conseil d’être heureux semble sortir des choses
Et monter vers le cœur troublé

Un conseil de goûter le charme d’être au monde,
Cepandant qu’on est jeune et que le soir est beau,
Car nous nous en allons, commes s’en va cette onde:
Elle à la mer, nous au tombeau.
