by ? Jars, Mr

Les Riens d'amour
Language: French (Français) 
Il faut, hélas ! bien peu de choses
Pour charmer un sensible cœur,
Un geste, un mot, un mot flatteur :
Il n’exige que ce qu’il ose.

  Ce sont ces riens charmants
  Qui sont tout pour les amants.

Est-on seul ? On aime à se dire.
Souvenirs d’amour sont si doux.
Là je le vis à mes genoux,
Ici je l’ai vu me sourire.
