by Lucie Delarue-Mardrus (1874 - 1945)

Les yeux de la poupée
Language: French (Français) 
Petite fille qui t'endort,
Ton âme est bien préoccupée.
Aurais-tu donc quelque remords ?
      Prends-garde !
      Ta poupée
      Te regarde.

Sans qu'on le sache, as-tu mal ?
Loin de ta maman occupée,
As-tu battu le plus petit ?
      Prends-garde !
      Ta poupée
      Te regarde.

Qu'elle ait les yeux noirs,
bleus ou verts,
Qu'elle soit neuve ou bien rapée,
Ta poupée aux yeux ouverts !
      Prends-garde !
      Ta poupée
      Te regarde.
