La Mer

The Sea

La Mer

The seaLa mer
That we see dancingQu'on voit danser
Along the clear gulfsLe 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 skyAu ciel d'été
Confuses, its white sheepConfond, ses blancs moutons
With the angels so pureAvec les anges si purs
The seaLa mer
Shepherdess of azureBergère d'azur
InfiniteInfinie
Oh, yes, hey!Oh, oui, eh!

SeeVoyez
Near the pondsPrès des étangs
Those tall wet reedsCes grands roseaux mouillés
See those white birdsVoyez ces oiseaux blancs
And those rusty housesEt ces maisons rouillées

The seaLa mer
Has cradled themLes a bercés
Along the clear gulfsLe long des golfes clairs
And with a love songEt d' une chanson d'amour

The seaLa mer
Oh, has cradled in my heartOh, a bercé en mon coeur
For lifePour la vie
Life!La vie!
