Â! p’tit prince, dj’a compris insi, picote à migote, vosse pitite vîye plin.ne di miraucolîye. Vos n’avîz yu longtimps come passemint d’ timps qui l’ doûceû dè solia qui s’ coûtche. Ci novia dètay-la, djè l’a apris li quatyinme djoû au matin, quand v’ m’avoz dit: Dji veu voltî l’ solia qui s’ coûtche.

Oh, little prince! Bit by bit I came to understand the secrets of your sad little life. For a long time you had found your only entertainment in the quiet pleasure of looking at the sunset. I learned that new detail on the morning of the fourth day, when you said to me: I am very fond of sunsets.
