by Michel Carré (1822 - 1872)

Chant provençal
Language: French (Français) 
  (avec simplicité)

Mireille ne sait pas encore
Le doux charme de sa beauté!
C'est une fleur qui vient d'éclore
Dans un sourire de l'été!

À qui ne connaît pas
Mireille, Dieu cache son plus cher trésor!
Sa grâce à nulle autre pareille
La pare mieux qu'un manteau d'or!

Mireille ne sait pas encore
Le doux charme de sa beauté!
C'est une fleur qui vient d'éclore
Dans un sourire de l'été!

Rien ne trouble le chaste rêve
De son coeur innocent et pur.
Elle rit au jour qui se lève,
Le jour lui sourit dans l'azur.

Mireille ne sait pas encore
Le doux charme de sa beauté!
C'est une fleur qui vient d'éclore
Dans un sourire de l'été!
