by Armand Silvestre (1837 - 1901)

Ton rire est pareil au frisson
Language: French (Français) 
Choose for Diff
Ton rire est pareil au frisson
Que le soir met au cœur des roses.
Il est gai comme une chanson
De printemps sous les cieux moroses.

Oh ! le beau rire et les doux yeux
Qui, seuls, me font triste ou joyeux !

Tes yeux sont pareils aux pervenches
Qu'avril met au cœur du buisson,
Et tristes comme une chanson
D'automne sous les vertes branches.

Oh ! le beau rire et les doux yeux
Qui, seuls, m'ont fait triste ou joyeux !
