by Arthur Justin Léon Leclère (1874 - 1966), as Tristan Klingsor

À Strasbourg en France
Language: French (Français) 
À Strasbourg en France, 
Damoiselle Lise danse 
Quand vient la cigogne avec l'hiver 
Et maître Ulric emplit sa panse 
De bière,
À Strasbourg en France.

Dans l'air assoupi 
Le clairon résonne : 
Qu'en dis-tu, Guillaume ? 
Je ne donnerais pas une pomme 
D'api 
De ton royaume.

Sur le clocher fin 
Le coq s'égosille : 
Qu'en dis-tu, Guillaume ? 
Je ne donnerais pas une aiguille 
De pin 
De ton royaume.

Le parler d'oïl 
Partout se chuchote : 
Qu'en dis-tu, Guillaume ? 
Je ne donnerais pas ma pelote 
De fil 
Pour ton royaume.

À Strasbourg en France 
Damoiselle Lise danse 
Quand vient la cigogne avec l'hiver, 
Et maître Ulric emplit sa panse 
De bière, 
À Strasbourg en France.
