éric barande, piano

l'âme cachée

au coeur du vieux paris,
dans une cave, dans un repli,
comme un souvenir rescapé de l'oubli,
comme une trace qui subsiste à la pluie
comme un écho, une lointaine harmonie,
je chanterais pour vous, dans la nuit,
murmures, mélopées, mélodies,
les 12 et 26, ce mois ci!
à mes côtés, mon vieil ami,
un pianiste mi classique, mi jazzy.

c'est un parcours de l'envie.
c'est un détour par l'enfoui.
réveiller nos coeurs endormis
aller chercher l'enseveli.
à pas feutrés, à pas petits
venez venez, sans faire de bruit!
ici passe, ici vit, ici git
l'âme cachée ...

parmi sofas, chandelles, vieilleries,
là, sous des voûtes à l'infini,
prenez cocktail, calice, jus de fruit.
l'entrée est libre, c'est gratuit
c'est entre 9 heures et minuit!
nos hôtes sont de napoli.
ils ont ce zeste de folie.
un peu barmen, un peu pythies.
et la FLAQue de leur esprit
prend toutes les formes, nul ne s'ennuie.

//

the hidden soul

in the heart of old paris,
in a cellar, in a fold,
like a memory that survived oblivion
like a trace that made it through the rain
like an echo, a far away harmony,
i will sing for you in the night,
murmurs, chants, melodies,
on the 12th and the 16th of this month!
by my side, my old friend,
a pianist a bit classical a bit jazz

it is a path to desire.
it is a side road through the beyond.
let's awake our sleepy hearts.
let's look into what's beneath.
walk quietly, make small steps,
come, come, silently.
here goes, here lives, here lays
the hidden soul ...

among the sofas, candle lights and oddities,
here under the medieval vault,
enjoy a cocktail, a calice, a juice.
admission is free,
it is from 9pm to midnite!
our hosts are from naples.
they have a twist of madness,
half barmen, half pythies.
and the pond (aka FLAQue in french)
of their mind, takes all shapes and never bore.

FLAQ est un bar cellar du 12ième siècle, à deux pas de beaubourg... 36 rue quincampoix, métro rambuteau/hôtel de ville/châtelet-les-halles, reservations: 01 42 77 72 25
