Rose partons; voici l'aurore
Language: French (Français) 
Available translation(s): 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! ]3
Rose, dérobons à l'envie
Le doux secret de notre vie.

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