by Alphonse Vanden Camp (1833 - 1901), as Camille Soubise

Nuit charmante
Language: French (Français) 
Quand vous rêvez, ma belle,
Dans l'ombre sous les baisers du soir,
La brise sur son aile
Vous porte son plus joyeux bonsoir.
Mon cœur rempli d'ivresse
Ne cesse de palpiter pour vous.
Venez, venez, ma déesse,
Entendre ce refrain si doux.
Ecoute, ô ma divine,
La chanson des amours,
La chanson de la mandoline,
Qui nous dit: « Aimez-vous toujours ! »
Ecoute, ô ma divine,
Les printemps sont si courts !
Aimons, aimons pendant les beaux jours !
Amour et gaité nous suivront toujours.
