"All the flying boat pilots back home have heard of Madame Gina of the Hotel Adriano. Around her place, even air pirates and bounty hunters are well behaved."
Porco Rosso is one of my favourite Ghibli films - it holds a magic for me like none other. I love the characters, the music, the romance and nostalgia of the era - and the deep human feelings that give it a touch of the surreal.
I am so thrilled to present this old-timey version of Gina's lovely bar song, "Le Temps des Cerises (The Time of Cherries)" which is a French revolutionary song from 1866. Performing on harp is the amazing Nicole: / @nicolechangharp
This song is available to stream on your favourite music platforms, under Colours of the Heart: A Studio Ghibli Arrangement Album by Coin Op. Studios: smarturl.it/a6...

Text and translation:
Quand nous chanterons le temps des cerises
Et gai rossignol et merle moqueur
Seront tous en fête
Les belles auront la folie en tête
Et les amoureux du soleil au cœur
Quand nous chanterons le temps des cerises
Sifflera bien mieux le merle moqueur
Mais il est bien court le temps des cerises
Où l'on s'en va deux cueillir en rêvant
Des pendants d'oreille...
Cerises d'amour aux robes pareilles (vermeilles)
Tombant sous la feuille (mousse) en gouttes de sang...
Mais il est bien court le temps des cerises
Pendants de corail qu'on cueille en rêvant !
J'aimerai toujours le temps des cerises
C'est de ce temps-là que je garde au cœur
Une plaie ouverte !

When we sing of cherry time
and the happy nightingale and the mockingbird
will all be celebrating,
pretty girls will have foolish ideas in their heads
and lovers [will have] dunchine in their hearts.
When we sing of cherry time
the mockingbird will whistle much better.
But it's very short, the cheery time,
when we go off, dreaming, to harvest
some ear-rings,
cherries of love dressed alike
falling through the leaves like drops of blood.
But it's very short, cherry time,
pendants of pink coral which we harvest while dreaming.
I will always love the cherry season
This is the time that I keep in my heart
An open wound.
