El Rossinyol
Joan Baez
The Nightingale
Nightingale, you're heading to France, nightingale
Send my regards to my mother, nightingale
From a beautiful grove, nightingale, in flight
Send my regards to my mother, nightingale
And not so much to my father, nightingale
From a beautiful grove, nightingale, in flight
Because I've been poorly married, nightingale
To a shepherd I've been given, nightingale
From a beautiful grove, nightingale, in flight
Who makes me watch the flock, nightingale
I've lost the bellwether, nightingale
From a beautiful grove, nightingale, in flight
I have to give you as payment, nightingale
A kiss and a hug, nightingale
From a beautiful grove, nightingale, in flight
Nightingale, you're heading to France, nightingale
Send my regards to my mother, nightingale
From a beautiful grove, nightingale, in flight
