A romantic ballad by Louisiana's foremost French songwriter.

Set in the turbulent 1850s in Southwestern Louisiana, this song is about separation and true love. Vigilante committees were formed to rid the Acadian prairie of undesirables. The resultant persecution uprooted families and destroyed homes. The singer does not give up hope of reuniting with his loved ones "one fine day". For English translation www.zacharyrich...

Rarement des chansons provoquent autant d'émotions que les vôtres. Merci à mon copain Fabien Ribault accordéoniste installé au canada depuis 40 ans de m'avoir fait découvrir vos chansons ! Nous chantions "travailler c'est trop dur" en rappelant à tous nos copain qu'il s'agissait d'une chanson de vous et pas de Julien Clerc ! Bravo et merci pour ces cadeaux !

I can see why Zachary Richard is considered Louisiana's foremost French songwriter.

Zach est dans ma play-list (un mot anglais courant en français), mais dans la play list du coeur. Belle chanson. A quand Zachary au festival des Veilles Charrues? En Bretagne. Merci Zachary.

Good evening
Kiss me, my dear Dominique,
The trip is over, we arrive at Sabine.
Hold your tears, it will break my heart.
To leave you like that, it's already so hard.
I did not do anything to deserve that,
It's because I'm poor and not like them.
If I stay at Pointe Bleue, they will come to see me.
This time they promised to do worse than the other time.
Good evening, my dear, good evening.
Before night falls on us again,
Kiss me and wish me goodnight.
Crossing the river is my freedom.
In Texas, they will never find me.
Heal the children and pray for me.
Do not lose hope of finding a beautiful day.
Good evening, my dear, good evening.
Before night falls on us again,
Kiss me and wish me goodnight.
Lyrics and Music: Zachary Richard

Thank you so much

[@RONDAWILLIAMSON]

This reminds me of the border to Texas as an escape route. Is this an historic story?

[@Gen-X_Dirtbag]

​@RONDAWILLIAMSON Yes! It's about an escaped outlaw, whose only crime was his skin color 💔
