by Jean Richepin (1849 - 1926)

Sur mon beau jasmin d'Espagne
Language: French (Français) 
Sur mon beau jasmin d'Espagne 
Trois oiseaux de la campagne 
Ce matin se sont posés.
J'ai dit : « Puisque je vous loge, 
Chantez-moi deux mots d'éloge 
Pour ma mie et ses baisers. » 

Le pinson et l'alouette 
Ont fait une pirouette, 
Et sont partis tout à coup. 
Le troisième, d'un air grave. 
Pour qu'en mon cœur je le grave, 
Reste et dit: « Coucou! coucou! »
