From the northern shackles of freeing the world,
It is only on the field, rippling, dies marshmallows,
As soon as the first turn green lime,

Here fiery onslaught, and there is a severe rebuff,
Springs bold new citizenship.

You thought dale swim. Complaisant, alive,
Like his miraculous hero,
Cheerful Beaumarchais flashed before thee.

He was talking about the legs, of eyes,
Oh the bliss of the country, where the sky is always clear,
Where a lazy life is voluptuously,
As ardent enthusiasm lad full sleep,
Where his wife in the evening go to the balcony,

With a smile and listen to attract foreigner.
And you, uptight, I flew in Sevilla.

There laurels churns, where oranges ripen ...
ABOUT, Well you tell me, wives out there know how to

Under gilʹotinoû Versailles and Trianon
And the grim horror superseded fun.
To transform the world with the thunder of a new glory.
Ferney paused for a long time. Voltaire your buddy,

And prickly Beaumarchais, and thy noseless Casti,
All, all have passed. their opinion, Tolk, passion
Forgotten for others. Look: around you
Everything is new in full swing, former exterminate.

You, not participating in the unrest of worldly,
Sometimes mocking the window looking at them
And see the revolution in the whole circular.
So, whirlwind affairs forgetting to musical bliss and idle.
In the shadow of porphyry and marble baths Chambers,
Roman nobles met their sunset.
And to them from afar the warrior, this orator,
The young Consul, the gloomy dictator
It was a day or two to relax luxuriously,
Breathe on the pier and embark on a new path.
