On the hives in color,
On the summer clothes,
On the tables and fruit,
I’m looking for it,
In the knotted buns,
On the wings of birds,
On the wings of hurricanes,
I’m looking for it,
On the surprised lemons,
On the necklaces of mothers,
On the turned over baskets,
I’m looking for it,
On the trust granted
With wheat and vines,
On your sunny skin,
I’m looking for it,
( to be continued)
Sur les ruches en couleur,
Sur les habits d’été,
Sur les tables et les fruits,
Je le cherche,
Dans les chignons noués,
Sur les ailes des oiseaux,
Sur les ailes des ouragans,
Je le cherche,
Sur les citrons étonnés,
Sur les colliers des mamans,
Sur les corbeilles retournées,
Je le cherche,
Sur la confiance accordée
Au blé et aux vignes,
Sur ta peau ensoleillée,
Je le cherche,

Hearing the maids cry: "Come walk through our orchard Come buy,come buy:
Apples and berries, Lemons and Raspberries, Melons and Raspberries,
Plump picked cherries, Smooth checked peaches, Pine-apple, Blackberries,
Apricots, Strawberries,There all ripe together In Summer weather,
Morning passes by, Fair eves that fly; Come buy, come buy; Grapes fresh from the vine, Pomegranates full and fresh, Dates sharp as an eastern delight, Pears juicy with one bite, Taste them and try; Currants and gooseberries, Bright as the Loganberries,
Figs fill your mouth, Citrons from the South, Taste sweet to the tongue,
With sound to the eye: Come buy,come buy."
