<div class="verse">

[[Category:Guillaume Apollinaire]]
 
The room is free
 
Each for himself
 
A new arrival
 
Pays by the month
 
 
The boss is doubtful
 
Whether you’ll pay
 
Like a top
 
I spin on the way
 
 
The traffic noise
 
My neighbour gross
 
Who puffs an acrid
 
English smoke
 
 
O La Vallière
 
Who limps and smiles
 
In my prayers
 
The bedside table
 
 
And all the company
 
in this hotel
 
know the languages
 
of Babel
 
 
Let’s shut our doors
 
With a double lock
 
And each adore
 
his lonely love
