One press of Sing plays this song on this device (4:35) 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
Le soir ramène le silence. Assis sur ces
recher déserts, Je suis dans le vague des
airs le char de la nuit qui s’avance.
Venus se lève à l’horizon ; A mes pieds
l’étoile amoureuse
De sa lueur mystérieuse Blanchit les tapis
de gazon. Tout à coup détaché des cieux,
Un rayon de l’astre nocturne,
Glissant sur mon front taciturne Vient
mollement vient mollement toucher mes
yeux !
Doux reflet d’un globe de flamme,
Charmant rayon, que me veuxtu ?
Vienstu dans mon sein abattu Porter la
lumière à mon âme ?
Descendstu pour me révéler Des mondes le
divin mystère ? Ces secrets cachés dans la
sphère Où le jour va te rappeler ?
Vienstu dévoiler l’avenir
Au cœur fatigué qui l’implore,
Rayon rayon divin estu l’aurore Du jour
qui ne doit pas finir ?
