about

Bonus track from Shapeshifter album. It starts the same as the end of the last song, but it is the sensual version with the Mermaid wale.

lyrics

See translation from French to English below.

Source des Os / Source des Eaux

"Laissons-nous aller à jouer avec le temps 
comme au printemps et l'été 
comme depuis la nuit des temps 
nous avons toujours eu en moment 
pour un thé d'antan à présent 

On fait pas comme si de rien était 
of fait bel et bien comme si tout était là et présent 

Prend soins de toi 

Elles te souhaitent un voyage bon 
Il' n'ya pas d'age pour connaitre son don 
Voilà les eaux éternelles 
comme les os de nos ancetres 
Viens prendre du temps pour elles 

Voila ces eaux éternelles 
comme ces os de nos ancetres 
Sont les marques du temporel 
viens donc prendre du temps pour elles 
Elle résonnent dans un nuage de cendres 
Ils patientent dans un lit de roses bien tendre 
montants et descendants des cieux 
toujours sans adieux 
Oh nos Aïeux..."

Closest Translation to the poem / lyrics

"Origin of Bones - Source of Water"

"Let us be carefree, play with time 
like in Spring and Summer 
alike to the beginning of time 
we have always had a moment 
to savor an ancient tea at this time 

may we act not as if nothing happened 
but certainly as if all were here, and aware. 
Take gentle care of yourself 

They wish you well on your journey 
"There is no age to know your gift" 
Behold the eternal waters, 
like the bones of our ancestors 
come spend time with "them" (sacred waters) 

Behold these sacred waters 
Like the bones of our ancestors 
Are the markers of the temporal 
Come on now, come spend time with them 
They resound in clouds of ash 
They patiently await in a bed of Roses 
Rising and descending from the Skies 
Never with a "forever-goodbye" 
Oh forefathers of ours."
