2. La Rose et Pierrot
 (Sung text)

Subtitle: Chanson-légende

Language: French (Français) 
Sur la plus haute branche,
Au fond du Paradis
Poursuit  la rose blanche
Blanche  du temps  jadis
Rossignol un Dimanche
Chantait au Paradis

C’était à la nuit close
Pierrot passait par là
Il avait le teint rose
Et l’habit de gala
Près de la fleur éclose
Tout son cœur se troubla

Il grimpe à l’églantine
Si haut q’il put grimper ;
Meurtri par chaque épine
Si fort qu’il dut pleurer
Dessus la mousseline
Le sang vint à perler

Tout qu’au bout de la branche
Il arrive au bonheur
Dessus la rose blanche
Mit son baiser vainqueur
Mais la fleur en revanche
But le sang de son cœur

Tout pâle et tout morose
Pierrot s’évanouit
Mais la fleur devint rose
Rose s’épanouit
De la métamorphose
Rossignol s’éjouit

Pierrot conta le chose
A la suprême cour
On condamna la rose
A ne fleurir qu’un jour ;
Et Pierrot blanc, morose
Au désir sans l’amour
