English Version.
Chorus.—" There's a good wind, There's a fine wind, There's a good wind, And my love is calling me. There's a good wind, There's a fine wind, There's a good wind, And my love is awaiting me.
Solo.—" Behind our home There is a pond, Behind our home There is a pond, Three handsome ducks Go there to paddle."
I have many times had to make excuses for the sailors' verses to their songs, I might do the same for those to this old boat-song, but I think it is beyond apology.
"En Revenant de la Joli' Rochelle" is another of these rowing-songs :—
EN REVENANT DE LA JOLI' ROCHELLE.
