Song Lyrics by George Brassens
Dans L'eau de la Claire Fontaine

Dans l'eau de la claire fontaine
Elle se baignait toute nue
Une saute de vent soudaine
Jeta ses habits dans les nues

En détresse, elle me fit signe
Pour la vêtir, d'aller chercher
Des monceaux de feuilles de vigne
Fleurs de lis ou fleurs d'oranger

Avec des pétales de roses
Un bout de corsage lui fis
La belle n'était pas bien grosse
Une seule rose a suffi

Avec le pampre de la vigne
Un bout de cotillon lui fis
Mais la belle était si petite
Qu'une seule feuille a suffi

Elle me tendit ses bras, ses lèvres
Comme pour me remercier
Je les pris avec tant de fièvre
Qu'ell' fut toute déshabillée

Le jeu dut plaire à l'ingénue
Car, à la fontaine souvent
Ell' s'alla baigner toute nue
En priant Dieu qu'il fit du vent
Qu'il fit du vent...
----------------------------------------
At the clear fountain,
While I was strolling by,
I found the water so nice
That I went in to bathe.

So long I've been loving you,
I will never forget you.

Under an oak tree,
I dried myself.
On the highest branch,
A nightingale was singing.

So long I've been loving you,
I will never forget you.

Sing, nightingale, sing,
Your heart is so happy.
Your heart feels like laughing,
Mine feels like weeping.

So long I've been loving you,
I will never forget you.

I lost my beloved,
Without deserving it,
For a bunch of roses,
That I denied her.

So long I've been loving you,
I will never forget you.

I wanted the rose
To be still on the bush,
And my sweet beloved
To be still loving me.
(other version:
And even the rosebush
To be thrown in the sea.)

So long I've been loving you,
I will never forget you.

    I'm so not into basketball or Don Ho. Sorry to confuse with the lute picture, or is it a mandolin?

That's okay, sports and the electricity surrounding sports is clearly not for everyone. Team people love sports, individuals..not so much.
..and that is clearly an electronc keyboard.

    No, Don Ho has not been in my brain since I was about 10..that's why I thought it comical 34 years later. But I did overplay that record (you're to young to know). I invited you to be friends with me, ball is in your court..and at the GARDEN!

    I just saw this movie... So long I've been Loving You... they sing this song in it.

    Still loving, lost without deserving. Clear fountain. Thank you for sharing this~
You are most welcome, my dear Zazou. I saw that advertised and have been meaning to see it myself. I think we have similar taste.

Have a great rest of the weekend!

    Ha! Don Ho..my mothers not-so-secret crush..
    On a more emoting level..really digging those lyrics..speaks to my low slung heart..

I much prefer this new profile picture to the others.

Don Ho was not in my mind when I posted this. Referring to him does not endear me. LOL

Have a great night, oh emoting one.
