Feuille morte: a favorite photograph
Paris Photo Week - November 2017
***
...Toi, tu m'aimais et je t'aimais
Et nous vivions tous deux ensemble,
Toi qui m'aimais, moi qui t'aimais
Les feuilles mortes se ramassent à la pelle
Tu vois, je n'ai pas oublié
Les feuilles mortes se ramassent à la pelle
Les souvenirs et les regrets aussi
Et le vent du Nord les emporte
Dans la nuit froide de l'oubli
Tu vois, je n'ai pas oublié
La chanson que tu me chantais
...
...You, you loved me and I loved you
And we both lived together,
You who loved me, me who loved you
And we both lived together,
You who loved me, me who loved you
Dead leaves are collected with a shovel
You see, I haven't forgotten
Dead leaves are collected with a shovel
Memories, and regrets too
And the north wind carries them away
In the cold night of oblivion
You see, I haven't forgotten
The song you sang to me
And the north wind carries them away
In the cold night of oblivion
You see, I haven't forgotten
The song you sang to me
From Les Feuilles Mortes by Jacques Prévert / sung by Yves Montand
