Gabriel Faure Le plus doux chemin The sweetest pathway op. 87 no. 1 (1904)

A mes pas le plus doux chemin
Mène à la porte de ma belle,
Et, bien qu'elle me soit rebelle,
J'y veux encor passer demain.

Il est tout fleuri de jasmin
Au temps de la saison nouvelle,
Et, bien qu'elle me soit cruelle
J'y passe, des fleurs à la main.

Pour toucher son coeur inhumain
Je chante ma peine cruelle,
Et, bien qu'elle me soit rebelle,
C'est pour moi le plus doux chemin.


The sweetest pathway in the world
Leads to my darling's door.
Although she's cast me aside, yet
Tomorrow I'll go there once more.

Jasmine blooms o'er the pathway,
Now when the season is new.
Although she's cruel towards me
I'll bring her flowers, too.

Her heart is monstrous cruel.
I'll woo it with my lay.
Although she's thrown me over
I'll follow that sweet pathway.

I think it's François Leroux, french baritone, with Jeff Cohen playing piano. I'm quite shure of that.

Correction. I guess george dyer is a tenor. He has a great range.
