by Ambroise Bétourné (1795 - 1838)

Le réveil d'un beau jour
Language: French (Français) 
Our translations:  ENG
Venez donc pour fêter le réveil d'un beau jour,
ô mes jeunes compagnes;
Le soleil du printemps est enfin de retour
Au sommet de nos vertes montagnes.
Hiod le di hiod le di auo.

Le ruisseau qui bondit fait renaitre en son cours
Des jasmins et des touffes de roses,
Et ces fleurs, pour orner nos modestes atours,
Sous nos pas à l'envi sont écloses.

Tout nous rit, le ciel pur et les tendres zéphirs,
Impregnés des parfums de la plaine;
Il nous faut, en ce jour d'abandon de plaisirs,
Oublier le travail et la peine.

Avant nous, verraton les enfans des cités,
Accourir sur nos vertes fougères;
Hâtons-nous d'animer ces vallons enchantés
Par nos chants et nos rondes légères.
