by Séverin Faust (1872 - 1945), as Camille Mauclair

Les Couronnes
Language: French (Français) 
Our translations:  NOR
C'est la fillette aux yeux cernés,
Avec son air étonné
Et ses trois frêles couronnes:
L'une de fraîche pimprenelle,
L'autre de vigne en dentelle,
Dans la troisième une rose d'automne.

La pimprenelle est pour son âme,
La vigne est pour l'amuser,
La rose à qui voudra l'aimer.
Beau chevalier! Beau chevalier!
Mais il ne passe plus personne,
Et la fillette aux yeux cernés
A laissé tomber les courronnes.
