Les sons de l'été The Sounds of Summer have come Like a surging tide they roll in, And fill the air with a glorious song. With them has arrived a Beauty so fair Bearing gifts of Gold: Life Light Love Hope With united cause and hearts of joy We celebrate the season until the Autumn's Dawn. Then Fate meanders, Destiny loses its way; The cold Winter brings its Heirs: Death Darkness Sorrow Despair And, alas, the Beauty leaves along with the surging tide The Sounds of Summer are gone... But they are sure to return.
