La blanche neige

Guillaume Apollinaire 1880 (Rome) – 1918 (Paris)

Les anges les anges dans le ciel
    L'un est vêtu en officier
    L'un est vêtu en cuisinier
    Et les autres chantent

    Bel officier couleur du ciel
    Le doux printemps longtemps après Noël
    Te médaillera d'un beau soleil
    D'un beau soleil

    Le cuisinier plume les oies
    Ah ! tombe neige
    Tombe et que n'ai-je
    Ma bien-aimée entre mes bras
