Les roses de l'amour ont fleuri sur tes joues,
les roses du plaisir ont parfumé ta bouche
et tes yeux, tes yeux las, se ferment, embrumés.
Et les astres ont fui dans le brouillard léger.
La rosée du matin parfume les pelouses,
les roses de l'aurore fleurissent les lointains.
Lève-toi, viens, ma tendre bien-aimée,
regardes aux carreaux l'horizon radieux !
Mais déjà le soleil a brillé dans l'azur,
inondant de clarté ma maîtresse endormie.
Chère femme ! Cher paysage !

Language: English  after the French (Français)
The roses of love have bloomed on your cheeks,
the roses of pleasure have perfumed your mouth
and your eyes, your tired eyes, grow hazy and shut.
The stars have vanished in the light mist,
the morning dew perfumes the lawns,
the roses of dawn bloom in the distant sky.
Get up, come, my tender beloved,
look through the window at the radiant horizon!
But already the sun has shone in the blue,
flooding with brightness my sleeping mistress.
Dear woman! Cherished landscape!
