A little poem about the magic of Paris. :)


L'Europe

Take a stroll down Paris lane

walk on the great bridges following the Seine

Enjoy a hot cup of café au lait

and have some escargots s'il vous plait

Chat with a street musician for a while

give him a euro or two, and make him smile

Ask him to play Sous le ciel de Paris

and embrace the tunes of music to your ear

Paris is a town so far away yet so near

Buy yourself a painting of exquisite taste

A self portrait perhaps? true talent will not waste

"Merci mon amour"

"I've truly had a very bon jour"



Word list:

The Seine = the river running through Paris
Café au lait = Coffee with milk
Escargots = Snails
S'il vous plait = Please/ Would you be so kind
Sous le ciel de Paris = Known french folkmelody. "Under Paris sky"
"Merci mon amour" = "Thank you my love"
Bon = Good/ Well
Jour = Day
