God! but she is fair!

Eugène Sauzay

God! But she is fair,

graceful, good and beautiful.

All are ready to praise

her excellent qualities.

Who could tire of her?

Her beauty is ever new.

God! but she is fair,

graceful, good and beautiful!

Nowhere does the sea look on

so fair and perfect

a lady or maiden.

Thinking on her is but a dream.

God! but she is fair!
