by Gabriel Vicaire (1849 - 1900)

Marion s’est endormie
Language: French (Français) 
Marion s’est endormie,
À l’ombre d’un églantier.
— Apprends-moi le doux métier,
Marion, ma belle amie.

Le soleil est à l’entour
Qui lui caresse la joue.
— Montre-moi comment on joue,
Marion, le jeu d’amour.

D’un brin de muguet fleurie,
Sa chevelure est au vent.
— Marion, rends-moi savant
En l’art de folâtrerie.
Marion, c’est Nicolas
Qui voudrait bien, mais qui n’ose.
Marions-nous sous la rose,
Sous la rose et le lilas.
