Au Café La Pompe à Saint Gilles, quelle merveille, La terrasse s'étend, un havre au doux soleil. Les chaises et les tables, un charme à l'infini, Où le temps suspend son vol, en doux rêverie.

Les cocktails, divins nectars, un art à déguster, Mélange de saveurs exquises à apprécier. Un voyage gustatif, un festin pour les sens, Là, des breuvages uniques, des délices immenses.
