Deux tourterelles se lamentaient et pleuraient
Sous la tonnelle, leur ritournelle me disait :
Nous étions belles près de la tour
Mais un jour
Une demoiselle coupa nos ailes pour toujours
Mmmh...
Une demoiselle coupa nos ailes pour toujours
Bel oiseau sage, tu es en cage pour la vie
De ton plumage c'en est fini
Douce amie
Les demoiselles sont bien souvent des enfants
Coupant les ailes aux tourterelles, aux amants
Mmmh...
Pleurez vos ailes, je pleure ma belle
Dans le vent
