Language: French (Français)  after the French (Français) 
Petits oiseaux, le printemps vient de naître,
Assemblez-vous sous ma fenêtre
Chantez le Dieu qui vous a donné l'être.
Oiseaux, chantez l'amour.

En voltigeant, hélas! on échappe
Au vrai bonheur chantez, chantez!
Ah! chantez le printemps, chantez l'amour.
