Marie, Pierre et Charlemagne [English translation]

Mary awakes up

Flakes out

However

Mary gets up

Good pupil

Child

Takes her school bag

on the table

And goes out

Her eyes sting

Still

Blink

Mary it’s really Carolus

Who made you get up so early

Mary, curse Carolus !

Blows a voice in her back

And Mary gathers

some leaves

Turned yellow

Meets Peter

On the ground ivy

Seated

Mary lazes

Then caresses

her cheek

Sits on the ground

Near Peter

And plays

Mary, bless Carolus !

Who made you get up so early

Mary, forget Carolus !

Blows a voice in her back

A day of school

With no words

It’s long

The bell rings

But the autumn

Smells well

Mary

hide herself

Near Peter

Outside

Mary gets away

Carolus

Is dead
