Sérénade française
Language: French (Français)
Au clair de la lune, mon gentil Pierrot, La blonde et la brune sortent sans falot, Sans falot, sans falot, A l'amour chacune payant sou écot. Viens-tu sur la dune, voir mourir le flot ? La voix de Neptune est comme un sanglot, D’où vient ta rancune, tu ne me dis mot, Ne dis mot, ne dis mot! Toi que plus qu’aucune j'aime, pauvre sot Plains mon infortune, souffrir est mon lot ... Ma peine est commune … J'en mourrais bientôt …
