Dôme épais le jasmin,
(Dome made of jasmine, )
A la rose s'assemble,
(Entwined with the rose together, )
Rive en fleurs frais matin,
(Both in flower, a fresh morning, )
Nous appellent ensemble.
(Call us together.)
Ah! glissons en suivant
(Ah! let us float along)
Le courant fuyant:
(On the river's current:)
Dans l'on de frémissante,
(On the shining waves, )
D'une main nonchalante,
(Our hands reach out to)
Gagnons le bord,
(The flowering bank, )
Où l'oiseau chante,
(Where the birds sing, )
l'oiseau, l'oiseau chante.
(o the lovely birds sing.)
Dôme épais, blanc jasmin,
(Dome of white jasmine, )
Nous appellent ensemble!
(Calling us together!)
MALLIKA
Sous le dôme épais, où le blanc jasmin
(Under the dome of white jasmine, )
A la rose s'assemble,
(Entwined with the rose together, )
Sur la rive en fleurs riant au matin,
(On the bank covered with flowers, Laughing through the morning, )
Viens, descendons ensemble.
(Let us descend together.)
Doucement glissons
(Gently floating)
De son flot charmant
(on its charming swells)
Suivons le courant fuyant:
(On the river's current:)
Dans l'onde frémissante,
(On the shining waves)
D'une main nonchalante,
(One hand reaches out to, )
Viens, gagnons le bord,
(Reaching for the bank, )
Où la source dort
(Where spring sleeps)
Et l'oiseau, l'oiseau chante.
(And the birds, the birds sing.)
Sous le dôme épais,
(Under the dome of jasmine, )
Sous le blanc jasmin,
(Under the white jasmine, )
Ah! descendons ensemble!
(Ah! calling us together!)

Very nice - but much much better with vocals. There is a spot where the two voices merge into one and hit a note that just melts my heart EVERY time I hear it.

[thebrummierailenthusiasts]

I’ll be having that music when on the plane that soars into the sky

Sous le dôme épais
Où le blanc jasmin
À la rose s'assemble
Sur la rive en fleurs
Riant au matin
Viens, descendons ensemble
Doucement glissons de son flot charmant
Suivons le courant fuyant
Dans l'onde frémissante
D'une main nonchalante
Viens, gagnons le bord
Où la source dort et
L'oiseau, l'oiseau chante
Sous le dôme épais
Où le blanc jasmin
Ah!
Descendons
Ensemble!
Sous le dôme épais
Où le blanc jasmin
À la rose s'assemble
Sur la rive en fleurs
Riant au matin
Viens, descendons ensemble
Doucement glissons de son flot charmant
Suivons le courant fuyant
Dans l'onde frémissante
D'une main nonchalante
Viens, gagnons le bord
Où la source dort et
L'oiseau, l'oiseau chante
Sous le dôme épais
Où le blanc jasmin
Ah!
Descendons
Ensemble
