by Pierre Jean de Béranger (1780 - 1857)

Rose partons; voici l'aurore
Language: French (Français) 
Our translations:  ENG
Rose partons; voici l'aurore:
Quitte [des]1 oreillers si doux.
Entends-tu la cloche sonore
Marquer l'heure du rendez-vous?
Cherchons, loin du bruit de la ville,
Pour le bonheur un [sûr]2 asile.

Viens aux champs couler d'heureux jours;
Les champs ont aussi leurs amours!

Viens aux champs fouler la verdure;
Donne le bras à ton amant;
Rapprochons-nous de la nature
Pour nous aimer plus tendrement.
Des oiseaux la troupe éveillée
Nous appelle sous la feuillée.

Viens aux champs couler d'heureux jours;
Les champs ont aussi leurs amours!

Allons visiter des rivages
Que tu croiras des bords lointains.
Je verrai sous d'épais ombrages
Tes pas devenir incertains.
Le désir cherche un lit de mousse.
Le monde est loin, l'herbe est si douce.

Viens aux champs couler d'heureux jours;
Les champs ont aussi leurs amours!

C'en est fait. Adieu, vains spectacles!
Adieu, Paris où je me plus,
Où les beaux-arts font des miracles,
Où la tendresse n'en fait plus!
Rose, dérobons à l'envie
Le doux secret de notre vie.

Viens aux champs couler d'heureux jours;
Les champs ont aussi leurs amours!
