La canción desolada
Language: Spanish (Español) after the French (Français)
"Au clair de la Lune" Pierrot duérmese, Va glosando el eco, el motivo aquel. "Ma chandelle est morte." ¿Dónde encontraré? Luz que a lo apagado dé llama otra vez? "Ouvre-moi la porte." ¿Dónde llamaré? Me han dejado a oscuras nada puedo ver. Se han de repetirme el helado y cruel: "Va chez la voisine" Señor ¿Para qué?
