MON AMIE LA ROSE / MY FRIEND, THE ROSE (Men version)

 

Dedicated to Robbie, an Aussie  Friend, who loves this singing Lady! This video clip features the song Mon Amie la Rose (My friend, the Rose) by the classy French Singer Françoise Hardy who was in the top of the European charts in the 60’s with poetic love songs. She was very famous with a song ‘Tous les garçons et les filles’  – All boys and girls-  in the early 60’s. She recorded numerous albums at that time and  Françoise is still recording from time to time, with still a reasonable success.

LYRICS in FRENCH

On est bien peu de chose
Et mon amie la rose
Me l’a dit ce matin
A l’aurore je suis née
Baptisée de rosée
Je me suis épanouie
Heureuse et amoureuse
Aux rayons du soleil
Me suis fermée la nuit
Me suis réveillée vieille

Mon amie la rose men version

Pourtant j’étais très belle
Oui j’étais la plus belle
Des fleurs de ton jardin

On est bien peu de chose
Et mon amie la rose
Me l’a dit ce matin
Vois le dieu qui m’a faite
Me fait courber la tête
Et je sens que je tombe
Et je sens que je tombe
Mon cœur est presque nu
J’ai le pied dans la tombe
Déjà je ne suis plus

Mon amie la rose , gay version

Tu m’admirais hier
Et je serai poussière
Pour toujours demain.

Mon amie la rose , men and gay version

On est bien peu de chose
Et mon amie la rose
Est morte ce matin
La lune cette nuit
A veillé mon amie
Moi en rêve j’ai vu
Eblouissante et nue
Son âme qui dansait
Bien au-delà des nues
Et qui me souriait

Mon amie la rose , men and gay version, sexy boys

Crois celui qui peut croire
Moi, j’ai besoin d’espoir
Sinon je ne suis rien

Ou bien si peu de chose
C’est mon amie la rose
Qui l’a dit hier matin.

LYRICS IN ENGLISH

We are truly insignificant

And that’s what my friend the rose

Told me this morning

Verse 1:
I was born at dawn
Baptised in dew
I blossomed
In the rays of the sun
Happy and in love
I closed my petals at night
And when I awoke I was old.
Yet I had been beautiful
Yes, I was the most beautiful
Of all the flowers in your garden

Mon amie la rose, gay version

Chorus 1

Verse 2
See, the God that made me
Now makes me bow my head
And I feel I’m falling
And I feel I’m falling
My heart is almost bare
I have a foot in my grave
Already I am nothing
You admired me only yesterday
And I shall be dust
Forever, tomorrow

Chorus 2:
We are truly insignificant
And my friend the rose
Died this morning

Verse 3
Last night the moon
Kept vigil over my friend
And in a dream I saw
Her soul, dancing
Dazzling and naked,
Above the heavens,
Smiling on me.
Let those who can, believe
But I need Hope
Or else I am nothing
