Avant de quitter ces lieux,
Sol natal de mes aïeux,
A toi, Seigneur et Roi des cieux,
Ma sœur je confie.
Daigne de tout danger
Toujours la protéger,
Cette soeur, si chérie.
Daigne de tout danger la protéger
Daigne la protéger de tout danger

Délivré d’une triste pensée
J’irai chercher la gloire au sein des ennemis,
Le premier, le plus brave au fort de la mêlée,
J’irai combattre pour mon pays.

Et si, vers lui, Dieu me rappelle,
Je veillerai sur toi fidèle,
Ô Marguerite.

Avant de quitter ces lieux,
Sol natal de mes aïeux,
A toi, Seigneur et Roi des cieux,
Ma sœur je confie.
Ô Roi des cieux, jette les yeux,
Protège Marguerite, Roi des cieux!

The Music of the Night—Webber

(back to the top . . .)
The Music of the Night Webber

Night time sharpens, heightens each sensation
Darkness wakes and stirs imagination
Silently, the senses abandon their defenses

Slowly, gently, night unfurls its splendor
Grasp it, sense it, tremulous and tender
Hearing is believing, music is deceiving
Turn your face away from the garish light of day,
turn your thoughts away from cold, unfeeling light
and listen to the music of the night.

Close your eyes and surrender to your darkest dreams!
Purge your thoughts of the life you knew before!
Close your eyes let your spirit start to soar
And you’ll live as you’ve never lived before.

Softly, deftly, music shall caress you.
Hear it, feel it secretly possess you
Open up your mind, let your fantasies unwind
In this darkness which you know you cannot fight
The darkness of the Music of the Night.

Let your mind start a journey though a strange, new world;
Leave all thoughts of the world you knew before.
Let your soul take you where you want to be!
Only then can you belong to me.

Floating, falling, sweet intoxication.
Touch me, trust me, savor each sensation.
Let the dream begin, let your darker side give in
To the power of the music that I write,
The power of the Music of the Night.

You alone can make my song take flight,
Help me make the Music of the Night.
