La Mer

The Sea

La Mer

The seaLa mer
That we see dancingQu'on voit danser
Along the clear baysLe long des golfes clairs
Has silver reflectionsA des reflets d'argent
The seaLa mer
With changing reflectionsDes reflets changeants
Under the rainSous la pluie
The seaLa mer
In the summer sky, it blendsAu ciel d'été confond
Its white sheepSes blancs moutons
With the angels so pureAvec les anges si purs
The sea, shepherdess of azureLa mer bergère d'azur
InfiniteInfinie
SeeVoyez
Near the pondsPrès des étangs
Those tall wet reedsCes grands roseaux mouillés
SeeVoyez
Those white birdsCes oiseaux blancs
And those rusty housesEt ces maisons rouillées
The seaLa mer
Has cradled themLes a bercés
Along the clear baysLe long des golfes clairs
And with a love songEt d'une chanson d'amour
The seaLa mer
Has cradled my heart for lifeA bercé mon cœur pour la vie
