Dîtes‑moi belle enchanteresse
Language: French (Français)
Dîtes-moi belle enchanteresse Qui vous a donné vos yeux? Vos deux yeux si plein de tendresse, Astres divin tombé des cieux. Dîtes-moi belle enchanteresse Qui vous a donné vos yeux? Quelle est la fée aux doigts de rose, Qui prit dans son écrin pour vous; Charmante fleur à peine éclose, Les deux admirables bijoux? Dîtes-moi belle enchanteresse Qui vous a donné vos yeux?
