Wynken Blynken And Nod

Buffy Sainte-Mary

Transposer:

[Verse 1] Wynken and Blynken and Nod one night Sailed off in a wooden shoe Sailed on a river of crystal light Into a sea of dew "Where are you going and what do you wish?" The old moon asked the three "Why we’re goin’ to fish for the herring fish That live in this beautiful sea; Nets of silver and gold have we!" Said Wynken Blynken And Nod [Verse 2] The old moon laughed and sang a song As they rocked in the wooden shoe And the wind that sped them all night long Ruffled the waves of dew The little stars were the herring fish That lived in that beautiful sea-- "Now cast your nets wherever you wish Never afeard are we"; So cried the stars to the fishermen three: Wynken Blynken And Nod [Verse 3] All night long their nets they threw To the stars in the twinkling foam Then down from the skies came the wooden shoe Bringing the fishermen home; ’T was all so pretty a sail it seemed As if it could not be And some folks thought ’t was a dream they ’d dreamed Of sailing that beautiful sea But I shall name you the fishermen three: Wynken Blynken And Nod [Verse 4] Wynken and Blynken are two little eyes And Nod is a little head And the wooden shoe that sailed the skies Is a wee one’s trundle-bed So shut your eyes while mother sings Of wonderful sights that be And you shall see the beautiful things As you rock in the misty sea Where the old shoe rocked the fishermen three: Wynken Blynken And Nod

La chanson raconte l'aventure nocturne de trois personnages, Wynken, Blynken et Nod, qui embarquent dans une chaussure en bois pour pêcher des poissons fantastiques dans une mer de lumière et de rosée. Alors qu'ils naviguent, la lune les interroge sur leur destination, et ils lui expliquent leur quête. En lançant leurs filets, ils attrapent des étoiles qui scintillent dans l’eau, illustrant un rêve enchanteur où la magie de l’enfance se mêle à la beauté de la nature. Dans ce monde onirique, les deux petits yeux et la tête qui composent les personnages représentent l'imagination des enfants. La chaussure, qui est en réalité un lit d’enfant, symbolise le passage entre le sommeil et le rêve, invitant les petits à laisser libre cours à leur esprit tout en se berçant dans cet univers féerique.
