Art of the Home is off today – enjoying Mother’s Day being celebrated in France. As we mentioned a couple of weeks ago, when we celebrated mother’s day in the US, we get to celebrate it twice! So let’s celebrate all the mothers of the world one more time!
We especially wanted to offer all the “mamans” a bouquet of white roses with this classic unforgettable French song about a son’s deep love for his mother – Les Roses Blanches by Bertha Sylva. So bonne journée et bonne fête à toutes les mamans! Profitez d’une douce et belle journée avec vos enfants et à demain — Enjoy a sweet and lovely day with your children and see you tomorrow…
Les Roses Blanches by Bertha Sylva
In France today, even young children may be humming the following verses which will for sure touch their mother’s heart…
Les Rose Blanches (1926) – Lyrics by Charles L. Pothier, Music by Léon Raiter
C’est aujourd’hui dimanche – Today is Sunday
Tiens ma jolie maman – Here is for you my pretty mommy
Voici des roses blanches, – Here are some whites roses
Toi qui les aime tant – For you that love them so much
