Passez nuages roses
Language: French (Français)
Passez, passez, nuages roses, Sur le ciel que vous fleurissez! J'aime les automnes moroses; Passez, passez . . . Volez, volez, feuilles ailées, Que chassent les vents affolés: J'aime les fôrets désolées; Volez, volez . . . Séchez, séchez, gerbes fleuries, Pavots, bleuets des blés penchés; J'aime les campagnes flétries; Séchez, séchez . . . Mourez, mourez, gaités et charmes, Rêves brillants, espoirs déçus: J'aime les coeurs emplis de larmes! Mourez, mourez, ah! mourez . . .
