Viens, les gazons sont verts
Language: French (Français) after the Portuguese (Português)
Si tu dors, jeune fille, Debout, debout! voici le soleil! Chasse de tes yeux l'indolent sommeil! C'est l'heure du réveil! Suis moi, vive et gentille! Pieds nus, viens! Les gazons sont verts! Les ruisseaux jaseurs par les bois déserts Promènent leurs flots clairs!
