BEAU SOIR by Claude Debussy song lyrics
by Joel Sattler
Based on a translation of the poem by Paul Bourget
When the sun falls in the red
and the rivers are roses
and the wind from the north
will shiver fields of grain
Time is short while yet we can
still pretend we can be happy
climbing up the mount of trouble in heart
try to take in all of the wonder
while we still can be one with beauty
while we still have courage and are still young
This is how we can be brave
like the stream that is flowing
she to the sea
we to the grave
