Paysage ouaté, que tu étais joli Sous la pluie; La jument grise trottinait tranquillement Et berçait ma mélancolie Dans ce décor charmant. La route s'en allait de colline en colline; Tout s'estompait et dans le ciel gouaché Le vieux village aimé dressait La ligne fine de son clocher.

Language: French (Français)
Des oignons, des radis, du céleri, Bonjour Madame Des oignons, des radis, du céleri, Des radis roses, des radis gris, Et des chardons pour votre âne; Bonjour Madame, Où est votre mari? Et le merle que dit-il, Dans sa cage de vieux fil De fer, Et la tourterelle blanche Dans le bois de la pervenche Et le loriot jaune en l'air, Et le moineau sur la branche Bonjour Madame, Nous reviendrons dimanche. Bonjour Madame, Où est votre mari? Il est dans son jardin qui cueille des radis, L'oseille verdoyante, aussi la chicorée Et les oignons qui font pleurer, Et puis les courges dont on rit; Mais le merle qu'a-t-il dit? Bonjour Madame Nous reviendrons jeudi.

Language: French (Français)
Voici déjà l'oseille écarlate Ou quasi. Ma tête est pleine de poèsie Et ma bourse plate. Rire chanson ni peine Ne font grasse panse; Jambon de Mayence Vaut mieux que long poème. Encore une saison révolue, Encore un automne avec son pourpris, Mais quoi, qu'en ai-je de plus? Rien que cheveux gris.

Language: French (Français)
Dimanche : le ciel est beau; Jetons aux carpes la croûte Et trempons du fil dans l'eau ; Est-ce que la vie est si courte ? Plus certes s'en moque le fou, Que cette truite qui m'écoute, Plus certes s'en moque le fou, Mais vous ?
