by André Alexandre (1860 - 1928)

Valse fleurie
Language: French (Français) 
De grand matin au fond des bois,
Nous avons fait un très beau choix
De romarin, de primevère ...
Voyez ! bouquets bien frais, bien blancs ...
Mettez pour un sou de printemps
A votre boutonnière !

L'air était vif, et son fredon
Se mêlait au parfum si bon
De la terre qui se réveille ;
Une alouette au loin chantait ...
Le soleil en nos cœurs jetait
Un peu de sa clarté vermeille
Et souriant, ô gué, l'âme fleurie,
Un instant nous avons trouvé
Assez douce la vie !
Voyez ! bouquets bien frais, bien blancs ...
Mettez pour un sou de printemps
A votre boutonnière !
