1. Les papillons  [sung text not yet checked]
by Jules Regnaud , "Les papillons", op. 4 (Trois mélodies) no. 2, published 1867 [ high voice and piano ], Paris, G. Flaxland
Language: French (Français) 
Les papillons couleur de neige
Volent par essaims sur la mer ;
Beaux papillons blancs, quand pourrai-je
Prendre le bleu chemin de l'air ?

Savez-vous, ô belle des belles,
Ma bayadère aux yeux de jais,
S'ils me [pouvaient]1 prêter leurs ailes,
Dites, savez-vous où j'irais ?

Sans prendre un seul baiser aux roses,
À travers vallons et forêts,
J'irais à vos lèvres mi-closes,
Fleur de mon âme, et j'y mourrais.

1.
Language: Chinese (中文) 
蝴蝶们白雪的颜色
成群结队飞过海洋；
美丽白蝴蝶，何时我可
走在天空蓝气路上？

知道吗，哦，美中之美丽，
长有乌黑眼睛的舞女，
如果她们能借我双翼，
知道我会向哪去？

未从玫瑰那里得到吻，
穿过森林还有山谷，
会去你半闭的嘴唇，
灵魂花，我会死在其处。
