Envoi de roses
Language: French (Français)
Si la plus rose de ces roses, Semblant renaitre chaque jour, Près de ton coeur quand tu la poses Parle tout bas de douces choses, Garde la bien: C'est mon amour. Mais s'il est une de ces roses Qui s'ouvre, muette, vers toi Pour effleurer, pâle de moi, Tes chères lèvres mi de closes, Elle est mon baiser; Rends la moi.
