Romain Bussine's text is a French adaptation of an anonymous Italian poem.
Après un rêve
Dans un sommeil que charmait ton image
Je rêvais le bonheur, ardent mirage;
Tes yeux étaient plus doux, ta voix pure et sonore,
Tu rayonnais comme un ciel éclairé par l'aurore.
Tu m'appelais et je quittais la terre
Pour m'enfuir avec toi vers la lumière;
Les cieux pour nous, entr'ouvraient leurs nues,
Splendeurs inconnues, lueurs divines entrevues...
Hélas! Hélas, triste réveil des songes!
Je t'appelle, ô nuit, rends-moi tes mensonges;
Reviens, reviens radieuse,
Reviens, ô nuit mystérieuse!
After a dream
In a sleep which your image charmed
I dreamed of happiness, ardent mirage;
your eyes were sweeter, your voice pure and ringing,
you shone like a sky lit up by the dawn.
You were calling me and I was leaving the earth
to flee with you towards the light;
the skies parted their clouds for us,
unknown splendours, divine half-seen gleams...
Alas! Alas! Sad awakening from dreams!
I call on you, o night, give me back your deceits;
come back, come back resplendent,
come back, o mysterious night! Auteur : civileso Tags: Faure Apres un Reve classical music score animation Kiri Te Kanawa  | | Kiri te Kanawa sings "Sola perduta abbandonata" - 107 sec Kiri te Kanawa sings "Sola perduta abbandonata" from Puccini's opera Manon Lescaut.Placido Domingo is Des Grieux.

Her great grand father was an artisan to dye Kimono designs, mainly Yukata(summer Kimono), her grand mother was a Kimono tailor, and both her mother & her aunt graduated from Kimono academy and her aunt taught Kimono classes in Japan.
She didn't know these remarkable histories of her family members for such a long time, however, without knowing these facts, one day she became inspired to learn about Kimono.
Since January in 2005, she has been studying Kimono to dress herself, and since March 2006, she has been learning to dress others.
Currently, she is preparing to officially become a certified Kimono Consultant/adviser of All Japan Kimono Consultant Association through "Sodo" Kimono Academy, in Fall, 2007. She accomplished the beginner's level 1, level 2, and also the intermediate level. She is now in the advance course.
You can read the biography of her principal Mr. Norio Yamanaka (also an appointed chairman of the All Japan Kimono Consultants Association) at:
http://www.amazon.com/Book-Kimono-Norio-Yamanaka/dp/0870117858
Atelier Kanawa also studies to dye Kimono designs by Bingata Kata-zome which is the traditional Japanese method of dyeing fabric in Okinawa(southern part of Japan), using a resist paste applied through stencil. The term is divided form a combination of Kata(pattern or stencil), and Zome, from the verb Someru(to dye). Bingata Katazome uses all natural ingredients for ink, brush, and fabric.
Atelier Kanawa is also pursuing classical Japanese dance by Hanayagi-style, which includes Geisha dance, Noh, and Kabuki. She graduated from the beginner's level in June 2006, from intermediate level on June 30th in 2007, and currently in advance level.
Lastly, Atelier Kanawa passionately pursues Tsumami Kanzashi, a traditional Japanese long ornamental hairpin.
Today, there are ONLY 15 acknowledged artisans of TSUMAMI KANZASHI in the whole world. Most of them don't have anybody to carry out this traditional art, so it is RAPIDLY & CERTAINLY dying out.
Atelier Kanawa was accepted as a private pupil by one of them even though her master does not train anybody anymore due to critical symptoms of cancer. Her master was deeply moved by the fact the she strongly wants to preserve this artwork and carry this out to the future generation. She can not even put in words how much she was honored to inherit her master's spirit.
At the beginning, she was making things from Kimono because she purely enjoyed handcrafting, but most importantly, she could not afford them, so she had to hand make them so that she could have them whenever she wore Kimono. And one day, people who saw her art work suggested that she sells. This is how she started Kimono handcraft business.
Beside Kimono handcraft, Atelier Kanawa has been selling Chiyo-gami accessories since year 2000, fused glass accessories, PMC jewelries, image transfer accessories, Japanese embroidery since year 2005.
Today, she deeply regards her ancestors who were in Kimono business. She passionately strives to pass this "disappearing culture" on to the next generation throughout the world.
Atelier Kanawa will be very happy if you enjoy her authentic Japanese art work.

O mio babbino caro
Mi piace è bello, bello
Vo'andare in Porta Rossa
a comperar l'anello!
Sì, sì, ci voglio andare!
e se l'amassi indarno,
andrei sul Ponte Vecchio,
ma per buttarmi in Arno!
Mi struggo e mi tormento!
O Dio, vorrei morir!

Babbo, pietà, pietà!

Je dis que rien ne m'épouvante,
Je dis, hélas! que je réponds de moi;
Mais j'ai beau faire la vaillante...
Au fond du coeur je meurs d'effroi!
Seule en ce lieu sauvage
Toute seule j'ai peur,
Mais j'ai tort d'avoir peur.
Vous me donnerez du courage;
Vous me protégerez, Seigneur!
Je vais voir de près cette femme,
Dont les artifices maudits
Ont fini par faire un infâme
De celui que j'aimais jadis!
Elle est dangereuse...elle est belle!
Mais je ne veux pas avoir peur!
Non, non, je ne veux pas avoir peur!
Je parlerai haut devant elle...Aaaaaahhhhhh!
Seigneur, vous me protégerez.
Seigneur, vous me protégerez.
Protégez-moi! Ô Seigneur!
Donnez-moi du courage!
Protégez-moi! Ô Seigneur!
Protégez-moi! Seigneur!
