Ce matin, avant l'aurore, un Dieu vint me reveiller..., 1839. Ce matin, avant l'aurore, un Dieu vint me reveiller; Il me dit: tu dors encore...Est-il temps de sommeiller? De ton Papa c'est la Fête, Fais lui quelque don flatteur En lui posant sur la tête Une couronne de fleurs. (This morning, before dawn, a God came to wake me; He said to me: are you still sleeping...Is it time for slumber? It's your papa's birthday, give him a flattering gift By placing a garland of flowers on his head'. From Moeurs Conjugales, no. 4.
