by Gabriel Vicaire (1849 - 1900)
C’est l’heure chantante
Language: French (Français)
C’est l’heure chantante. La terre a souri ; Un frisson d’attente Passe au bois fleuri. Pervenche, anémone, Égayez les prés ; Voici la mignonne Aux sourcils dorés. Joli vent, caresse La pointe des houx ; Voici la maîtresse Qu’on sert à genoux. Buvez la rosée, Lys et liseron ; Voici l’épousée, La couronne au front.
