Moja pieszczotka gdy w wesołej chwili, Pocznie szczebiotać i kwilić i gruchać : Tak mile grucha, szczebioce i kwili, Że nie chcąc słówka żadnego postradać, Nie śmiem przerywać, nie śmiem odpowiadać, I tylko chciałbym słuchać, słuchać, słuchać. Lecz mowy żywość gdy oczki z apali, I pocznie mocniej jagody różować, Perłowe ząbki błysną śród korali : Ach! wtenczas śmielej w oczęta poglądam, Usta pomykam i słuchać nie żądam, Tylko całować, całować, całować.

Ma chérie, quand dans un moment de bonne humeur, Tu bavardes, gémis et roucoules, D'un tel bavardage, gémissement, roucoulement, Ne voulant pas perdre un mot Je n'ose l'interrompre, je n'ose répondre, Je veux seulement écouter. Mais quand la vivacité de ton discours allume tes yeux Et rosit tes joues davantage, Tes dents de perle brillent parmi les coraux, Ah ! alors, alors je plonge hardiment dans tes doux yeux, Je poursuis tes lèvres non pour t'écouter Seulement pour t'embrasser, t'embrasser, t'embrasser.
