Aria from the pearl fishers

Aria from the Pearl Fishers

Aria from the pearl fishers

I believe I still hearJe crois entendre encore
Hidden beneath the palm treesCache sous les palmiers
Her tender and sonorous voiceSa voix tendre et sonore
Like the song of wood pigeons.Comme un chant de ramiers.

Oh enchanting nightOh nuit enchanteresse
Divine raptureDivin ravissement
Oh charming memoryOh souvenir charmant,
Mad intoxication, sweet dream!Folle ivresse, doux reve!

In the light of the starsAux clartes des etoiles
I believe I still see herJe crois encor la voir
Parting her long veilsEntr'ouvrir ses longs voiles
In the warm evening winds.Aux vents tiedes du soir.

Oh enchanting nightOh nuit enchanteresse
Divine raptureDivin ravissement
Oh charming memoryOh souvenir charmant
Mad intoxication, sweet dream!Folle ivresse, doux reve!

Charming memory!Charmant Souvenir!
Charming memory!Charmant Souvenir!
