Charles Trenet – La Mer lyrics
La mer
Qu'on voit danser le long des golfes clairs
A des reflets d'argent
La mer
Des reflets changeants
Sous la pluie

La mer
Au ciel d'été confond
Ses blancs moutons
Avec les anges si purs
La mer bergère d'azur
Infinie

Voyez
Près des étangs
Ces grands roseaux mouillés
Voyez
Ces oiseaux blancs
Et ces maisons rouillées

La mer
Les a bercés
Le long des golfes clairs
Et d'une chanson d'amour
La mer
A bercé mon coeur pour la vie

    The sea that we see danse along the clear gulfs has silver reflection that change in the rain.
    The sea under the summer sky confuses her foamy waves with angels so pure the sea shepherdess of an infinite blue.
    Look near the ponds these great moist reeds
    look these white birds and these rusty houses.
    The sea has cradled them along the clear gulfs and with a love song the sea has cradled my heart forever.

    As a teenager in 1954, my then boyfriend brought this record to my house and as soon as I heard the words, my heart skipped a beat.. Holding me close we danced through the entire record starting it over and over again. Although we have moved on we still have lunch together 3 - 4 times a year. We are both 80 now and still love to reminisce about this incredibly sexy, warm and lovely song.

    My Dad played this song on piano every night. Mom's maiden name was Le Mer and they were married right when this song came out.... it was right at the end of WWII mom worked for a congressman in DC and Dad shipped out to France to capture Nazi WMD's at the wars end. Dad always played in bands and had his own band before the war continued till he passed away at 93... Mom died in 1972 the next year Dark side of the Moon came out and my girl friend seduced me to it right after my 18th birthday.
