Well, Krusty beat me to it, as he said, I was working.Here is a simple tune we learn when we are kids, simple tune of course , but it is true that it is convenient to learn the language..http://youtube.com/watch?v=V2nsNrt2qeEIl Pleut, Il Pleut Bergère Marc Ogéret lyricsTitle: Il Pleut, Il Pleut Bergère Il pleut, il pleut bergère,Presse tes blancs moutons,Allons sous ma chaumièreBergère, vite, allons.J'entends sous le feuillageL'eau qui tombe à grand bruit,Voici, voici l'orageVoici l'éclair qui luit.Entends-tu le tonnerre ?Il roule en approchant,Prends un abri bergèreA ma droite en marchant.Je vois notre cabane,Et tiens, voici venirMa mère et ma sœur AnneQui vont l'étable ouvrir.Bonsoir,bonsoir ma mère,Ma sœur Anne bonsoir,J'amène ma bergèrePrès de nous ce soir.Va te sécher ma mie,Auprès de nos tisons.Sœur, fais-lui compagnie,[Il Pleut, Il Pleut Bergère Lyrics on http://www.lyricsmania.com]Entrez, petits moutons.Soignons bien, ô ma mèreSon tant joli troupeau;Donnez plus de litièreA son petit agneau.C'est fait, allons près d'elleEh bien, donc, te voilà !En corset qu'elle est belleMa mère voyez-la.Soupons! Prends cette chaise,Tu seras près de moi;Ce flambeau de mélèzeBrûlera devant toi.Goûte de ce laitageMais tu ne manges pas !Tu te sens de l'orage ?Il a lassé tes pas.Eh bien! voilà ta couche :Dors-y bien jusqu'au jour;Laisse-moi sur ta bouchePrendre un baiser d'amour.Ne rougis pas, bergère,Ma mère et moi demainNous irons chez ton pèreLui demander ta main.
