Mood du jour : "Morning Star" Hugh Coltman.

Bonne Fête à toutes les mamans avec cette ode à l'amour d'une mère pour son enfant.
"Morning Star" repris par Hugh Coltman, sur son album "Songs of Nat King Cole" dédié à sa mère disparue, alors qu'il n'avait que sept ans, car elle écoutait très souvent Nat King Cole.



L'original de Nat King Cole avec Pearl Bailey, extrait du film "St. Louis Blues" d'Allen Reisner de 1958.

Paroles
As a child I asked my mother
"Is there a morning star?"
I was answered by my mother
"Yes there's a morning star"

Just before the dawn she whispered
A light will appear above
And this light that meets the sunrise
This is the star of love

For this is the morning star
That shines above
Yes this is the morning star
This is the star of love

And then I asked my mother

"Will I see the morning star?"
I was answered by my mother
"You will see the morning star"

"It gleams for just one moment
One moment in the skies
Then it shines forever after
Deep in a mother's eyes"

And that's when I learned how wise
All mothers are
For there in my mother's eyes
I saw the morning star

The lovelight in her eyes
Shining bright like a morning star
