La P’tite Lili

Little Lilie

Slow waltz

There was a sweet sixteen year old...

...who had lost both parents.

A simple seamstress

Without claims...

and without fashion.

But she had golden blond hair, more beautiful than all treasures.

And even more precious, eyes blue and mysterious.

Chorus

Morning walk

Evening

That was an adorable girl that passed.

"Always pretty, that little Lilie."

And her big eyes seemed to reflect the blue sky.

"What?"

She's an angel passing through life.

A beautiful day without bad thoughts.

She met at a ball...

...a man without scruples...

...who offered her everything.

But he didn't like working.

He left the workshop...

...telling...

"you are a better job for me".
