TO YOU MY BEAUTIFUL MEN IS A SONG IN FRENCHhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jw6h7y2D7fI. Those who make us men are the mothers; they go before us like light from the heavens. To mothers do you not owe being on earth? So, have mercy on mothers, handsome men, may clouds not kill men. A child of seven runs in the pasture, and over the woods sails his kite. Did you not know these early games? So, have mercy, fine men, and children, that the clouds do not kill men. While combing her hair, the young bride at the bottom of her mirror seeks a gentle face. Was not someone looking for you the same one day ago? So have pity, fine men, on the spouses whom the clouds do not kill men.

Those clouds do not kill men.
