Long live Vierville!
Words of Miss Simone Pourchez
Air: The Wooden Trumpet
Memory of the artistic evening of August 19, 1926
(Printing house of the "Courrier du Bessin" A. Leboeuf Littry and Bayeux)
Once upon a time, what, what, what?
An amazing country, which was surprisingly pleasing,
To all those who, my faith, once,
Came to spend two or three months there in the summer
It's paradise, it's a village
Who is in Normandy;
And who has a beach,
A Casino and Tamaris!
Chorus
We go back every year,
In Vierville, in Vierville,
because we still like it so much,
Parents as well as children;
It's. that we found it all amazing,
In Vierville, in Vierville,
Things like the inhabitants,
In Vierville near Grandcamp!
I

Say it once, what, what, what?
What attracts, what we desire, everything that makes you happy
It's that we find there, what, what, what?
Rest, shelter, and forgetting all worries.
Mr. PIPREL and his wife,
Receive you very gallantly;
Evening and morning, we cheer
Amazingly cooked food!
(In the chorus)
3
But what are we doing there, eh! My faith,
In the morning, take a bath, then play on the fine sand.
When the sea has risen, rest
Or go play on the sunny cliff.
In the evening we dance, we babble,
Without stopping the phono,
And young people and girls
Execute and javas and tangos 1
(in chorus)
4
If you want, my faith, what, what, what?
Know if I said well and if I didn't lie,
So go there once, yes, there,
I'm sure you'll think I told the truth
So, happy that we get together,
The regulars, the new.
And let's all sing well together
To celebrate this most beautiful Eden!
Last chorus
We will go back every year
In Vierville, in Vierville,
We always have so much fun,
Parents as well as children,
So try, yes, my good people,
Our Vierville, our Vierville,
And we will all sing cheerfully
Let's go back every year!
