Le pays des rêves
Music: G. Fauré (1845–1924) · Words: Armand Silvestre (1837–1901)
Veuxtu qu’au beau pays des rêves Nous allions
la main dans la main ?
One press of Sing plays this song on this device (3:48) and stops after the last: the piano and the words come from the score, so a key change or a slower tempo changes no sound file.
The microphone is asked for only when you press its button. What it hears is measured and scored on this device and never leaves it; nothing is kept unless you record and save the file yourself. What is kept, and where.
The words
Veuxtu qu’au beau pays des rêves Nous allions
la main dans la main ?
Plus loin que l’odeur des jasmins,
Plus haut que la plainte des grèves
Veuxtu du beau pays des rêves Tous les deux
chercher le chemin ?
J’ai taillé dans l’azur les toiles Du
vaisseau qui nous portera,
Et doucement nous conduira Jusqu’au verger
d’or des étoiles
J’ai taillé dans l’azur les toiles Du
vaisseau qui nous conduira.
Mais combien la terre est lointaine,
Que poursuivent ses blancs sillons,
Au caprice des papillons Demandons la
route incertaine.
Ah, combien la terre est lointaine Où
fleurissent nos visions !
Voistu : le beau pays des rêves Est trop haut
pour les pas humains. Respirons à deux les
jasmins,
Et chantons encor sur les grèves
Voistu : du beau pays des rêves L’amour seul
en sait les chemins.
