Mon amour
Language: French (Français) 
Mon amour est comme la rose,
La rose à l'aube fraîche éclose
Et plus brillante que le jour !
Ma bien-aimée, à vous la rose
  D’amour.

Mon amour est comme l’étoile,
L'étoile d'or que rien ne voile
Et qui scintille au point du jour !
Ma bien-aimée, à vous l'étoile
  D’amour.

Mon amour est la mélodie
Des harpes douces d'Éolie
Qui vibrent seules nuit et jour !
Aimée, à vous la mélodie
  D'amour.

Confirmed with Cantilènes & Cantatilles par A. Berton, Gand, Chez H. Hoste, 1864, page 10.
