La sérénade de Pierrot
Language: French (Français)
D'un grotesque archet dissonant Agaçant sa viole plate, A la héron, sur une patte, Il pince un air inconvenant. Soudain Cassandre, intervenant, Blâme ce nocturne acrobate, D'un grotesque archet dissonant Agaçant sa viole plate. Pierrot la rejette, et prenant D'une poigne très délicate Le vieux par sa roide cravate, Zèbre son ventre bedonnant D'un grotesque archet dissonant.

Mit groteskem Riesenbogen See base text
Language: German (Deutsch) after the French (Français)
Mit groteskem Riesenbogen Kratzt Pierrot auf seiner Bratsche, Wie der Storch auf einem Beine, Knipst er trüb ein Pizzicato. Plötzlich naht Cassander - wütend Ob des nächtgen Virtuosen - Mit groteskem Riesenbogen Kratzt Pierrot auf seiner Bratsche. Von sich wirft er jetzt die Bratsche: Mit der delikaten Linken Faßt den Kahlkopf er am Kragen - Träumend kratzt er auf der Glatze Mit groteskem Riesenbogen.
