L'Oiseau des Îles
(2003)
Part of a series or song cycle:
Pancarte pour une porte d'entrée
L'Oiseau des Îles
Comme il partait à l’aventure un oiseau des îles
me dit deux ou trois mots dans son langage
avec l’accent le plus bizzare qu’il y ait eu en fait d’amour
Tropical birds
As he set out at random
a tropical bird spoke
two or three words to me
in its own language
in the most bizarre accent
that ever existed in matters of love
