DEEP RIVER " Deep river , my home is over Jordan , Deep river , Lord , I want to cross over into campgroun ' . Oh , don' t you want to go to that gospel feast , That promised land where all is peace ? Oh , deep river , Lord I want to cross over into campgroun' " C ' est un très vieux chant américain de spiritualité que nous chantions à la répétition de notre chœur Mardi dernier . D ' habitude pour les chants en langue étrangère on ne se soucie que peu du sens précis du texte . L ' important est la polyphonie avec mots et musique . Mais cette fois je lus attentivement les paroles écrites en anglais . Et je pensais à Israël et aux Palestiniens ! " Land where all is peace " . Puisse - t - elle l ' être ! It ' s a very old spiritual american song that we sang at the pratice of our choir on last Tuesday . Usually for songs written in stranger language we have not concerns about the precise sense of the text .. The main is to have a nice polyphony with words and music . But , this time , I red attentively the words written in English . And I thought of Israël and Palestinians . " Land where all is peace " . May it be !
