Air champêtre Matches base text
Language: French (Français)
Belle source, belle source, Je veux me rappeler sans cesse, Qu'un jour, guidé par l'amitié Ravi, j'ai contemplé ton visage, ô dèesse, Perdu sous la mou, sous la mousse à moitié. Que n'est-il demeuré, cet ami que je pleure, O nymphe, à ton culte attaché, Pour se mêler encore au souffle qui t'effleure, Et répondre à ton flot caché?
