Le lac
Language: French (Français)
Ô beau lac, ô limpide azur, tes reflets sont calmes et purs, Mais sur ma tête se flétrit ma verte couronne de romarin. Oui, hélas ! ton beau romarin a perdu son charmant éclat, Je vois ses fleurs tomber une à une, il n’en reste aucune, Jeune fille sur tes cheveux.
