Un Oiseau qui veut entrer dans un Pot qui est chaud
[f16913891]
Un Oiseau qui veut entrer dans un Pot qui est chaud
In ollis venari
Ne cherche jamais ce qui ne t’appartient pas
Non cercar mai quel che, non ti appartiene
No buscad jamas aquello que no te toca
Soekt nooit ’t geen u niet toekomt
Look never for that, vvich dos not belong to you
Such nicht vvas dein nicht ist
