“Le Chant de Mallory” was the French entry in the Eurovision Song Contact of 1964, performed in French by the French singer Rachel. The song was written by André Popp and Pierre Cour. The song placed 4th in a field of 16. The song deals with Michael Mallory, a half-British, half-French soldier who went fighting in Ireland, leaving behind his wife. The singer asks him to sing the song he used to sing once more, as it was a song of love. -English Translation- Mallory’s Song Tell me again, Mallory, the song you sang to me Your summer song in the blue of the Irish sky You were only sixteen years old, I still was a child And the night that came took us for lovers You, Mallory, you sang for me, the wind ruffled our hair And I don’t know anymore very well why we closed our eyes Remember, Mallory, we’ve waited for the day By dreaming, both of us, I really believe that it was love Where is it, Mallory, the song you sang to me? Your summer song in the blue of the Irish sky The sun set, throwing gold in your eyes We acted that we loved each other, but for you it was just a game Oh Mallory, where is that song, that summer love song? To which country did the wind go, the wind that carried it off? I’ll keep your song forever, Mallory Because it was the song, the song of a first love Lalala lalala... lalalalala lalala... Because it was the song, the song of a first love youtu.be/8r99RHkyAaI
