Description

My very first video recording to spend my time at home and practice at the same time during Lock down period (Covid 19). A very challenging song, always like to try this out! Thanks to my beloved voice singing teacher Gynger Soh for your guidance and teaching. 😘

Emporte ma folie Au gré du vent, Fleur en chantant cueillie Et jetée en rêvant, - Emporte ma folie Au gré du vent: Comme la fleur fauchée Périt l'amour: La main qui t'a touchée Fuit ma main sans retour. - Comme la fleur fauchée Périt l'amour. Que le vent qui te sèche O pauvre fleur, Tout à l'heure si fraîche Et demain sans couleur, - Que le vent qui te sèche, Sèche mon coeur!

Carry off my folly at the whim of the wind, oh flower which I picked while I sang and threw away as I dreamed. - Carry off my folly at the whim of the wind! Like flowers scythed down, love dies. The hand that once touched you now shuns my hand forever. - Like flowers scythed down, love dies. May the wind that withers you, oh poor flower, a moment ago so fresh and tomorrow all faded. - May the wind that withers you wither my heart!
