At the bottom of the Seine river...

It seems that heavy rains flooded the Seine.
He also evacuated the precious works of the Louvre.

I suddenly remembered "Seine Lamentation" written by Kurt Weil during his exile in Paris.
The lyrics are amazing, right?
Joy and sadness, love and hate, beauty and ugliness, light and darkness.
It is sung on the melody that goes back and forth between Weil's major and minor.
I listened back to Teresa Stratus and Marianne Faithful.
Hmm ... after all, it has a German-like weight.
Lately I've only been listening to Juliet Greco.
Maybe she is singing too.

And it definitely reminds me of Kajii Motojiro.

Definition's, Hello.
I didn't know the flood of the Seine.
Is it okay?
I hear a lot of news every day.
When I hear with Kajii Motojiro, it's a nemesis.
It's refreshing and cheerful.
Let's drink coffee and take a break.

The Seine, right?
The Louvre is built along the river.
Is Orsay all right?

Kurt Weil and Weil can only come up with "Sanbun Opera" and Motojiro Kajii with "Lemon".
Others know the name, but I'm not sure.
It's a pity that I've been educated since I was a kid, but I've completely forgotten it.
If you don't like it, you won't get it, right?
That's why Sada is reminding me...
Thanks for this.

That's right.
It seems that some people died in France and Germany due to this European flood.
I hope you will settle down soon.

Greco's Seine lamentations are likely.

"At the bottom of the Seine
There is gold There is a rusted ship
There is a jewel, there is a weapon.''
There are various things including chaos.
Some are invisible.
The truth is that all of them are there. When.

"The reason the desert is beautiful is because it hides a well somewhere."
"Seine lamentation", "under the cherry tree" and "the prince of the stars" all say the same thing.
Oh, I wonder if there is a part that is also connected to "if you keep it secret".

"You're wiping the underarms. Do you get cold sweat? That's the same for me. Nothing offends me."
Balance is important, and if you can shake it to the right too much, you can't shake it too far to the left or you will fall.

"I have to see what is important to me"
"You look so painful. What a beautiful perspective."
Actually the same.

Those who have or have had parents or grandparents in the Meiji and Taisho eras and the early Showa period are likely to be able to communicate.
In the old days, you would throw away unnecessary things or things you didn't want in the river or bury them in the mountains. How is it?
The act is not to return it naturally, but to hide or flush it to erase it.
I can't do this because it's illegal dumping in modern times, but I think these actions are still often performed in crime.

I was in a big library, so I read the poem "Seine Lamentations" and thought that there was a universal thought.
There was a very similar expression, "under the cherry tree."
Unlike the one I used as a reference, the entrance was different and the shape of the road was a little different, but I wondered if I arrived at the same thing.

It's too hard to live in beautiful perspective every day.
But I want to see what is important in my mind.

Well, I wonder if the river Seine was flooded, but I think it was quite a big river...

Even though there are a huge number of Louvre artworks, have you been able to evacuate?

Kurt Weill, I didn't know so I'll listen to it. Sada knows a lot of music.

It is amazing that the texts introduced to me are always very literary. I want to write a sentence like Sada.

You mentioned about Kajii Motojiro before. I read a few short stories, "Lemon".
