by Émile Albert Kayenberg (1860 - 1929), as Albert Giraud
Pierrot Dandy
Language: French (Français)
D'un rayon de lune fantasque Luisent les flacons de cristal Sur le lavabo de santal Du pâle dandy bergamasque. La fontaine rit dans sa vasque Avec un son clair de métal. D'un rayon de Lune fantasque Luisent les flacons de cristal. Mais le seigneur à blanche basque, Laissant le rouge végétal Et le fard vert oriental Maquille étrangement son masque D'un rayon de Lune fantasque.
