by Charles Koechlin (1867 - 1950)

Keep that schoolgirl complexion
Language: French (Français) 
Gardez ce teint de jeune fille, gardez ce teint.
Le savon Palmolive vous le conservera.
Le savon Palmolive est à base d'huile de palme et d'huile d'olive.
On pourrait s'en servir pour la salade,
Mais il vaut mieux s'en servir pour la peau, pour la peau des dames.
Il leur donne un velouté merveilleux,
et tel que le peut désirer le plus exigeant amoureux.
Gardez ce teint de jeune fille.
