La mer
Charles Trénet
The sea
The sea
That we see dancing
Along the clear gulfs
With silver reflections
The sea
Changing reflections under the rain
The sea
In the summer sky
Blends its white sheep
With the angels so pure
The sea
Shepherdess of infinite azure
See
Near the ponds
Those tall wet reeds
See
Those white birds
And those rusty houses
The sea
Has cradled them
Along the clear gulfs
And with a love song
The sea
Has cradled my heart for life
The sea
That we see dancing
Along the clear gulfs
With silver reflections
The sea
Changing reflections under the rain
The sea, the sea
In the summer sky
Blends its white sheep
With the angels so pure
The sea
Shepherdess of infinite azure
See
Near the ponds
Those tall wet reeds
See
Those white birds
And those rusty houses
The sea
The sea has cradled them
Along the clear gulfs
And with a love song
The sea
Has cradled my heart for life
