Cortège Lyrics by Poldowski

Collected Songs of Poldowski Volume 1

0

Un singe en veste de brocart
Trotte et gambade devant elle
Qui froisse un mouchoir de dentelle
Dans sa main gantée avec art

Tandis qu'un négrillon tout rouge
Maintient à tour de bras les pans
De sa lourde robe en suspens
Attentif à tout pli qui bouge;

Le singe ne perd pas des yeux
La gorge blanche de la dame
Opulent trésor que réclame
Le torse nu de l'un des dieux;

Le négrillon parfois soulève
Plus haut qu'il ne faut, l'aigrefin
Son fardeau somptueux, afin
De voir ce dont la nuit il rêve;

Elle va par les escaliers
Et ne paraît pas davantage
Sensible à l'insolent suffrage
De ses animaux familiers
