by Arthur Justin Léon Leclère (1874 - 1966), as Tristan Klingsor
Chanson de l'Oseille
Language: French (Français)
Voici déjà l'oseille écarlate Ou quasi. Ma tête est pleine de poèsie Et ma bourse plate. Rire chanson ni peine Ne font grasse panse; Jambon de Mayence Vaut mieux que long poème. Encore une saison révolue, Encore un automne avec son pourpris, Mais quoi, qu'en ai-je de plus? Rien que cheveux gris.
