by Marceline Desbordes-Valmore (1786 - 1859)

Non, tu n'auras pas mon bouquet
Language: French (Français) 
Non, tu n'auras pas mon bouquet.
Traite-moi de capricieuse,
De volage, d'ambitieuse,
D'esprit léger, vain ou coquet ;
Non, tu n'auras pas mon bouquet.

Comme l'incarnat du plaisir,
On dit qu'il sied à ma figure.
Veux-tu de ma simple parure
Oter ce qui peut m'embellir,
Comme l'incarnat du plaisir ?

Je veux le garder sur mon cœur ;
Il est aussi pur que mon âme ;
Un soupir, un souffle de flamme
En pourrait ternir la fraîcheur :
Je veux le garder sur mon cœur.

Non, non, point de bouquet pour toi :
L'éclat de la rose est trop tendre ;
Demain tu pourrais me le rendre ;
Demain... qu'en ferais-je ? dis-moi.
Non, non, point de bouquet pour toi.
