Un bas de jambe est ravissant :
\nC\u2019est une adorable promesse.
\nUn bas de jambe est ravissant,
\nEt, comme Henri IV, l\u2019on sent
\nQu\u2019un bas de jambe \u00ab vaut la Messe.
\nLes Neuf S\u0153urs, aux bords du Perme\u017f\u017fe,
\nEn montraient dix-huit en dansant !
\nUn bas de jambe est ravissant,
\nAu Pardon, comme \u00e0 la Kermesse.<\/p>\n
Le bas est blanc, net, bien tir\u00e9 ;
\nNoire ou prunelle est la bottine ;
\nLe bas est blanc, net, bien tir\u00e9.
\nDans le fin soulier mordor\u00e9,
\nChaque bas de jambe trottine
\nD\u2019une fa\u00e7on chaste et mutine
\nDont l\u2019homme grave est atterr\u00e9 !
\nLe bas est blanc, net, bien tir\u00e9,
\nDe la \u00ab grande dame \u00bb \u00e0\u2026 Justine.<\/p>\n
Rouge, brun, bleu, vert, gris ou blanc,
\nEst le jupon qui le caresse ;
\nRouge, brun, bleu, vert, gris ou blanc.
\nEt, murmure un Turc en tremblant,
\nSe soulevant avec paresse :
\n\u00ab Le pantalon de ma ma\u00eetresse
\nFait battre mon c\u0153ur indolent. \u00bb
\nRouge, brun, bleu, vert, gris ou blanc,
\nTout jupon provoque l\u2019ivresse.<\/p>\n
Mon c\u0153ur me quitte et court apr\u00e8s
\nChaque bas de jambe qui passe ;
\nMon c\u0153ur me quitte et court apr\u00e8s.
\nVrai, je ne le fais pas expr\u00e8s !
\nQue diable faut-il que je fasse !
\nDois-je donc me voiler la face
\nOu boire des calmants tr\u00e8s-frais !
\nMon c\u0153ur me quitte et court apr\u00e8s.
\nEt son ardeur n\u2019est jamais lasse.<\/p>\n
\u00c0 Paris, S\u00e9ville on Berlin,
\nAu Corso comme au parc Saint-James<\/p>\n
\u00c0 Paris, Stockholm ou Berlin,
\n\u00c0 New-York ou pr\u00e8s du Kremlin,
\nMesdemoiselles et mesdames,
\nPour r\u00e9jouir nos tristes \u00e2mes,
\nMontrez vos chevilles \u00e0 plein,
\n\u00c0 Paris, en Chine, \u00e0 Berlin,
\nSous un ciel sombre ou plein de flammes !<\/p>\n","protected":false},"parent":0,"template":"","meta":{"inline_featured_image":false,"site-sidebar-layout":"default","site-content-layout":"","ast-site-content-layout":"default","site-content-style":"default","site-sidebar-style":"default","ast-global-header-display":"","ast-banner-title-visibility":"","ast-main-header-display":"","ast-hfb-above-header-display":"","ast-hfb-below-header-display":"","ast-hfb-mobile-header-display":"","site-post-title":"","ast-breadcrumbs-content":"","ast-featured-img":"","footer-sml-layout":"","ast-disable-related-posts":"","theme-transparent-header-meta":"default","adv-header-id-meta":"","stick-header-meta":"default","header-above-stick-meta":"","header-main-stick-meta":"","header-below-stick-meta":"","astra-migrate-meta-layouts":"set","ast-page-background-enabled":"default","ast-page-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"ast-content-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}}},"annee":[187],"poems-book":[939],"poemes-theme":[],"poete":[938],"class_list":["post-15989","poemes","type-poemes","status-publish","hentry","annee-187","poems-book-la-lanterne-en-vers-de-couleur","poete-ernest-dhervilly"],"yoast_head":"\n
