"En La Mar" - Cécile Corbel - Songbook vol.2 video

This song appears on the album "Songbook vol.2". official website: www.cecilecorbel.com "Si la mer était faite de lait, et les bateaux étaient des bâtons de cannelle, j'y pêcherai toutes mes douleurs avec des petits mots d'amour...» J'ai écrit cette chanson en puisant dans différents poèmes et chansons séfarades traditionnels. J'aime comme ces textes contiennent des doubles lectures et comme les mots simples peuvent porter en eux une universalité... "If the sea was made of milk, and ships of cinnamon, I'd fish there all my sorrows with little love notes..." » I took inspiration for this song in various traditional Sephardic poems. I love how these texts hold double meanings and how simple worlds can carry everything that's universal... En la mar hay una torre En la torre una ventana En la ventana hay una hija Que a los marineros ama. Las estrellas del cielo, Una y una s'hazen dos. No tenex tanta firmeza como tenemos los dos. chorus Dame tu mano palomba Para suvir a tu nido Maldicha que durmes sola vengo a durmir contigo Si la mar era de leche Los barquitos de canela Pexcaria las mis dolores Con palavricas de amor
