- I Dream of JEANIE WITH THE LIGHT Brown Hair with words text lyrics & music by Stephen Foster. This is a popular folk song sing along not from the tv show I dream of Jeanie.
I Dream of Jeanie with the light brown hair,
Borne, like a vapor, on the summer air;
I see her tripping where the bright streams play,
Happy as the daisies that dance on her way.
Many were the wild notes her merry voice would pour.
Many were the blithe birds that warbled them o’er:
Oh! I dream of Jeanie with the light brown hair,
Floating, like a vapor, on the soft summer air.
I Dream of JEANIE WITH THE LIGHT Brown Hair verse 2
I long for Jeanie with the daydawn smile,
Radiant in gladness, warm with winning guile;
I hear her melodies, like joys gone by,
Sighing round my heart o’er the fond hopes that die:-
Sighing like the night wind and sobbing like the rain,-
Wailing for the lost one that comes not again:
Oh! I long for Jeanie, and my heart bows low,
Never more to find her where the bright waters flow.
I sigh for Jeanie, but her light form strayed
Far from the fond hearts round her native glade;
Her smiles have vanished and her sweet songs flown,
Flitting like the dreams that have cheered us and gone.
Now the nodding wild flowers may wither on the shore
While her gentle fingers will cull them no more:
Oh! I sigh for Jeanie with the light brown hair,
Floating, like a vapor, on the soft summer air.

This is one of the most beautiful songs ever written. It makes me recall someone I loved but who left in the end. He had a lovely, playful smile and the most endearing personality, much like Jeanie.
Nice! Thanks for commenting!
It's a beautiful song!!!
Biagio Indino thanks
Beautiful song and wonderfully sung.
Alice Merchant thank you Alice. If you’re interested, I recorded and posted all of Foster’s songs- (about 200 total). 17 on this channel and the rest on the Szabo Music channel
Your voice is very pretty, it makes me appreciate Stephen Foster’s music. I listen to this song all the time
Awe. Thanks Hannah
beautiful song and beautifully sung!
Thanks Roger!
I like this song❤
Thanks!
Foster wrote this song for his wife, Jane. Pretty sweet :)
Agreed
The lyrics are pretty sad because they tell a story of lost love which is what happened She left him
True. Thanks
@@lindaeasley5606 I always thought they were temporarily separated, but you're right. Thanks, not the happiest thing to learn, but it adds pathos to the song.
@@cartman9675 I stand corrected.Reading more about his life,they did reunite after he wrote this song but their marriage was a rocky one. It seems the main problem was his inability to support them financially.Of course in the early days ,song writing was not a very profitable line of work.
He died alone in a hotel room in January 1864 after falling and receiving a gash in his head and neck Such a tragedy to die so young
This song is my favorite among his songs. Foster is famous in Korea too! I listened for the first time in my life.
Thank you for listening! I have recorded all of his songs- almost 200. Most are on my other channel Szabo Music. He used to live in my area.
great version of the song with the 3 strophes sung. nicely sung
+AbrahamDiner thank you!
Indeed! This is the only one I've found with all three and it's beautiful.
Stephen Foster's quintessential music. Hard to believe he died broke
Yes. Sad🥲
Fiocchi di cotone per Janie...........is the Italian song of the anime TV series. Please listen to it, it's beautiful. The singer is the the famous Italian singer Cristina D'Avena ❤❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉😊😊😊😊
Do you mean this? th-cam.com/video/9woIrY08ZCc/w-d-xo.htmlsi=NQEA-IJd0pJMBXuB
@@CharlesSzaboPhD yes, lovely. She is a famous Italian singer 💕
Thanks?
How pleasing to hear each verse and not just the first. For 100+ years, men and women have sung “Jeanie” equally well, from John McCormack, Richard Crooks and Jussi Bjoerling to Rosa Ponselle, Kate Smith and Marilyn Horne. Your roots are in Ohio according to your bio. Are you from Columbus?
Thanks. No, I live where Stephen Foster spent much of his childhood when he wasn’t it PA, Youngstown.
I heard the song on the movie aired on pure flicks. It’s about a lady reflecting on her childhood with her many siblings and her highly talented father. Good movie.
Jason Smith thanks I’ll have to check it out
The name of the movie is called, “The measure of a man.”
Jason Smith thanks
I don't remember ever hearing this song, but my mom would always tell me that her dad would sing it to her little sister Donna Jean (Jeanie) I was thinking about it, so thought I would find it and listen to it, so sad after I did, her sister died at 3 years old from Leukemia..
🥲❤️
VERY nice!
I appreciate the time and effort you put into your videos for the rest of us!
You ARE appreciated! 👍
Thanks Barbara (I wonder sometimes)
Gorgeous! You should play and sing more songs from Godey’s and Peterson’s ladies magazines of the 1850s-1870s, available for free on Google Books.
Thanks. I found it but having difficulty locating the songs. Any in particular?
lovely!!
Thanks Hipporobot- sorry I didn't respond earlier Chuck Szabo (I started a new channel called SZABO MUSIC)
I heard of this in a book called
The girl in the locked room
Interesting- why did it mention this song?

Al LePage Thanks- I have now recorded every song that Foster wrote
Thanks
No conclusive evidence .. but I was told I'm related to Steven Foster
Certainly possible. He had brothers and a daughter but no sons. Others have commented that they are related too. Are you musical?
Szabó? So you are of Hungarian descent, eh?
igen yes
Fun fact: stephens best childhoods friends were Jeanie/Jane,bill,Robert,Susan,Betty,Julia,Maura,Kanna,Jackson,Amy,Sally,Bessie,Paula,Sam,Mary,Rosa,Helen,Dorothy,Michelle
You read his biography? He used to live in my hometown
Sure I did it great it’s a must read also every time I start remembering his wife leaving him makes me so sad it’s like a arrows that went straight to ur heart
If u want extra info on his life go watch the anime version its called Jeanie with the light brown hair girl unfortunately there isn’t an English dubbed version so we should have to wait also the owner said that they’re are working on a season 2 it’s a must watch anime u won’t regret it just search it on TH-cam and watch them Japanese version with captions on so u could understand it in English hope u have fun
Cool- thanks!
Yes- it was the beginning of the end for him
Did Foster speak in British English? The lyrics poor/o'er and rain/again don't rhyme in American English, but do in British English.
No he didn’t. You’re correct on rain/ again not rhyming in Am English, however poor/o’er are very close but not perfect. Some Americans pronounce o’er the same as or
@@CharlesSzaboPhD In my comment above I mistakenly wrote it as "poor", when it was "pour", so "pour"/"o'er" should rhyme in American English too. But if he didn't pronounce "again" like "a gain" like British people, why did he choose "rain" and "again", when he made all other lines rhyme?
@typingcat I don’t know. Let me think about this. Thanks
Bugs Bunny was singing this.
Really? Which episode?
@@CharlesSzaboPhD The one with the stork that was drunk
Thanks. I’ll look for it
Charles, “I dream of Jeanie, she’s a light brown hare” ... FUNNY STUFF!
Also Lou Costello.
