by Félix Bovet (1824 - 1903)
Elle et moi
Language: French (Français)
Le printemps aux mille couleurs, La flamme séduisante à la vive étincelle, Le troëne des champs avec ses blanches fleurs, Aux suaves odeurs, C'est elle! Ah! C'est elle! L'hirondelle qui vole au devant du printemps, Le chevreau qui s'attache au troëne des champs, Ah! Attiré par sa fleur, sa fleur si belle; Le papillon qui sans effroi Au flambeau va brûler son aile, Ah! C'est moi.
