by Claude Loron (1851 - 1922), as Camille Roy

Les Temps des roses
Language: French (Français) 
Our translations:  ENG
Chantons, voici le temps des roses !
Voici la saison des amours!
Mai nous ramène les beaux jours
Et mille autres charmantes choses
Qui ne peuvent durer toujours !
Chantons, voici le temps des roses !

Rions! Voici le temps des roses !
Avec les belles sous les bois,
Allons courir, allons courir comme autrefois.
Aux doux parfums des fleurs mi-closes,
Mêlons nos rires et nos voix !
Rions, voici le temps des roses !

Aimons! Voici le temps des roses !
La beauté s'éveille au printemps.
Et tous les coeurs sont palpitants.
Pendant ces rapides instants,
Aimons, car c'est le temps des roses !
