Je rejoindrai ma belle
Georges Brassens Lyrics
A l'heure du berger
Au mépris du danger
J'prendrai la passerelle
Pour rejoindre ma belle
A l'heure du berger
Au mépris du danger
Et nul n'y pourra rien changer
Tombant du haut des nues
La bourrasque est venue
Tombant du haut des nues
La bourrasque est venue
Des passerell's, il y en a plus
Si les vents ont cru bon
De me couper les ponts
J'prendrai la balancelle
Pour rejoindre ma belle
Si les vents ont cru bon
De me couper les ponts
J'embarquerai dans l'entrepont
Tombant du haut des nues
Les marins sont venus
Lever l'ancre à la balancelle
Tombant du haut des nues
Les marins sont venus
Des balancell's, il y en a plus
Si les forbans des eaux
Ont volé mes vaisseaux
Y me pouss'ra des ailes
Pour rejoindre ma belle
Si les forbans des eaux
Ont volé mes vaisseaux
J'prendrai le chemin des oiseaux
Les chasseurs à l'affût
Te tireront dessus
Adieu la plume ! adieu les ailes !
Les chasseurs à l'affût
Te tireront dessus
De tes amours, y en aura plus
Si c'est mon triste lot
De faire un trou dans l'eau
Racontez à la belle
Que je suis mort fidèle
Et qu'ell' daigne à son tour
Attendre quelques jours
Pour filer de nouvell's amours

Georges Brassens was a French singer and songwriter known for accompanying himself with his acoustic guitar. He wrote some extremely controversial, yet poetic songs. In doing so, he managed to change attitudes across France.
He was uncompromising when composing his songs. His tactical method of addressing issues was profound and often humorous, making him a unique and effective figure in the French community.

Brassens, born in 1921 in the small Mediterrenean port of Sete, wanted to be a poet. He realized very early however that poetry in the 20th century could hardly put bread on the table and instead set himself to become a singer.
He is much less famous internationally than contemporaries like Charles Aznavour, Edith Piaf and Yves Montand, as much of the impact of his songs came from the lyrics, which proved difficult to translate into other languages. He loved the Middle Ages and used a great deal of Old French vocabulary, as well as many classical - ie., Latin and Greek - references. Few people, even in France, possess the background to fully understand his songs.
Yet he was at the same time a hugely popular singer and many of his songs still carry a lot of appeal and relevance. In this sense, he can be compared to Boris Vian, to Jacques Brel, and to a lesser extent to Serge Gainsbourg.
He was very sophisticated, yet at the same time used profanity liberally. While he wasn't politically engaged, he was nevertheless unambiguously a leftist, many of his songs carrying blatant and buoyant anarchist overtones.
While his music was initially quite primitive, the 1950's St-Germain-des-Pres influence quickly made itself felt and while subdued and - in his mind - always secondary to the lyrics, it became increasingly sophisticated - to the point that many of his songs have been covered and reinterpretated by jazzmen (see for instance this UK site: www.projetbrassens.eclipse.co.uk)
He died in 1981, but up to this date (2006) there are few French people - including most of those born since - who can't sing along to his most famous song, Les Copains d'abord ("Friends foremost") or his "Bancs public" ("Public Benches").

mais ce serait pas la musique de "quand on est con" derrière?
L' étroit je dis
Il aura fallu que passe 50 ans avant qu' enfin je me mette à écouter une chanson de Brassens. C 'est mon copain Yves qui m' a chanté cette chanson , et enfin je me suis mis à l' écouter, et à en apprendre plein.
