For the Love of Insouciance

(English version) He possessed the air of indifference However, his appearance was quite debonair Many young ladies hearts fell To the sabotage, of his indifference Oh, how their hearts did pine. Until, finally the lass caught his eye, Copper colored were her limbs A peach glow, to her blushing cheeks Teeth of pearly white… Eyes as black as the darkest coals, Hair soft as that of raven’s down Bound by silken threads of gold, Upon her beauty he could not frown… His heart stood as a suitor bound; His passion burning, as he desired a sweet kiss From her ruby red lips… His thoughts were displayed And then dejected by she, Oh, what a travesty… For it seems that, he had sought The love of Miss Insouciance
