"LES HOMMES S’ANGOISSENT ET LES VACHES PAISSENT
LES HOMMES SE PRESSENT ET LES ANNÉES PASSENT
ALORS QU’ON ME LAISSE LÀ DANS L’HERBE GRASSE
OÙ JE ME PRÉLASSE COMPLÈTEMENT HS

Y’A D’L’AMOUR PARTOUT SUR LES BOSSES DANS LES TROUS
QUE D’GÉNÉRATIONS EN PRÉPARATION
ET PUIS CROYEZ VOUS QU’IL Y EN AIT QUI SOIENT JALOUX
TOUT L’MONDE EST À TOUT L’MONDE ET PUIS LES FEMELLES PONDENT

GARDEZ VOS MENACES ET MÊME VOS PROMESSES
LÀ DANS L’HERBE ÉPAISSE QUE VOULEZ VOUS QU’J’EN FASSE
LES HOMMES S’ANGOISSENT ET LES VACHES PAISSENT
LES HOMMES SE PRESSENT ET LES ANNÉES PASSENT"

Dante's Prayer - Loreena McKennitt

When the dark wood fell before me
And all the paths were overgrown
When the priests of pride say there is no other way
I tilled the sorrows of stone

I did not believe because I could not see
Though you came to me in the night
When the dawn seemed forever lost
You showed me your love in the light of the stars

Cast your eyes on the ocean
Cast your soul to the sea
When the dark night seems endless
Please remember me

Then the mountain rose before me
By the deep well of desire
From the fountain of forgiveness
Beyond the ice and the fire

Cast your eyes on the ocean
Cast your soul to the sea
When the dark night seems endless
Please remember me

Though we share this humble path, alone
How fragile is the heart
Oh give these clay feet wings to fly
To touch the face of the stars

Breathe life into this feeble heart
Lift this mortal veil of fear
Take these crumbled hopes, etched with tears
We'll rise above these earthly cares

Cast your eyes on the ocean
Cast your soul to the sea
When the dark night seems endless
Please remember me

"Les herbes grasses" means the tall(fat) grass

Thank you for listening goyacobol! This friend of our: Imre (his birth name is Sébastien) originates from France and lives half the year in NYC with a performance artist UNY teacher name BARBARA BROWNING. They statred out as a projecto create a rock-pop star, and it took off aso now he has a catalog of 400 + songds in french and english and others, which are truly well written, original and jnique. He truly is like a Bad Dylan, or Georges Brassens. heir work is available all over the net and well worth the detour. We had them in Montreal for a long weekend 3 years ago and we've kept in touch and will play together next spring. (G.d willing!)...

Thanks, for the translation @guimondaniel . That makes more sense than the Deepl translator. You guys are a bit off the beaten path but I think you come up with some interesting creations.

The duduk is easily the most recognizable Armenian musical instrument. With different variations and names, it is used throughout the region – the Balkans, the Middle East, the Caucasus, and Central Asia.

Beautiful. Perfect music while reading Ella Maillart. Thank you!

Ginger Baker passed away recently. One of the first, 'superstar' drummers, who was best known for his work in Cream.

An "old" french group that I love a lot particularly because the lyrics are always surrealistic, in a sense, outside the music itself. With that I mean that they could have no sense at all between, in the same time, they have a lot !

 

[Maat]

And I will just add this one because of the "subtittles"

Just for those who want to learn French in a more funny way (just like for me, if it wasn't of The Cure, I'm not sure I would have made those progress in English --- yes, I know, I'm not so "fresh" !)

 

[Artex]

To me, this song is a prayer for protection from fear.

Tool - Fear Inoculum

Immunity, long overdue
Contagion, I exhale you
Naive, I opened up to you
Venom and mania
Now, contagion, I exhale you

The deceiver says, he says
"You belong to me
You don't wanna breathe the light of the others
Fear the light, fear the breath
Fear the others for eternity"

But I hear them now, inhale the clarity
Hear the venom, the venom in
What you say inoculated
Bless this immunity
Bless this immunity
Bless this immunity

Exhale, expel
Recast my tale
Weave my allegorical elegy

Enumerate all that I'm to do
Calculating steps away from you
My own mitosis
Growing through division from mania

Exhale, expel
Recast my tale
Weave my allegorical elegy

Forfeit all control
You poison, you spectacle
Exorcise the spectacle
Exorcise the malady
Exorcise the disparate
Poison for eternity
Purge me and evacuate
The venom and the fear that binds me

Your veil now, lift away
I see you runnin'
Deceiver chased away
A long time comin'
