La Bohémienne
Language: French (Français) after the Russian (Русский)
Je suis une jeune bohémienne, Bohémienne pas commune, Car je sais dire la bonne aventure, Mets dans ma main, dans ma menotte Des piécettes bien sonnantes. Et je dévoile la bonne étoile. Bonne ou mauvaise Je te dévoile ton étoile. S'il t'arrive quelque aventure Ou si le chagrin t'oppresse Fais-moi quérir J'ai mille remèdes. Et je te tire ma révérence. Mon tourtereau joli et tendre Car le temps presse et je me sauve Et je me sauve.
