Les frêles bercelonnettes
Qui remplissent nos maisons
Sont roses pour nos fillettes
Et d'azur pour nos garçons
On les garnit de dentelle
Avec des soins infinis
La maman et l'hirondelle
Savent construire les nids {x2}
Devant eux, la jeune mère
En se mettant à genoux
Fait, le soir, une prière
Dont Dieu n'est jamais jaloux
Tandis qu'ils sont dans leurs langes
Priez vos petits Noëls
Car vos mignons sont des anges
Et leurs berceaux des autels {x2}
Mais, hélas ! la foudre tombe
Sur les nids et les berceaux
En emportant dans la tombe
Les enfants et les oiseaux
Pendant qu'ici-bas l'on verse
Des pleurs sur les disparus
C'est la Vierge qui les berce
Dans le berceau de Jésus ! {x2}
