 (Sung text translation for setting by J. Lang)
 See original
Language: French (Français)  after the German (Deutsch) 
Un enfant vit une petite rose,

Elle était jeune et belle comme le matin,
Courant vite, il s'approcha pour la voir,
Il la vit avec grande joie.
Petite rose, petite rose, petite rose rouge,
Petite rose sur la lande.
