LYRICS
O Bien Aimée
La lune blanche luit dans les bois,
De chaque branche part une voix
Sous la ramée.
O bien aimée!
L'étang reflète profond miroir,
La silhouette du saule noir
Où le vent pleure,
Rêvons, c'est l'heure!
Un vaste et tender apaisement
Semble descendre du firmament
Que l'astre irise,
C'est l'heure exquise!
LYRICS (Suggested English Translation)
O Beloved
The white moon shines in the forest
From every branch springs forth a voice,
Beneath the foliage,
Oh beloved!
The pond reflects like a deep mirror,
The silhouette of the dark willow,
In which the wind is crying
Let us dream, 'tis the hour!
A vast and tender calm
Seems to descend from the sky
Made iridescent by the moon
"Tis the exquisite hour!
Marcel Grandjany, French composer 1891-1975
Paul Verlaine, French poet 1844-1896
The "La lune blanche" (The White Moon) poem paints a magical image of rich flowing moonlight, serene birdsong, natures voice, and enchanted forest images being reflected on a deep pond. Added to this picturesque scene are the lines at the end of each verse "O bien amiee" (O beloved), "Revons, c'est l'heure" (Let us dream, tis the hour) and "C'est l'heure exquise" (Tis the exquisite hour) suggesting there are two people in this tender love poem experiencing the beauty of life and nature through the eyes of someone in love.

Our special thanks to Phil McCarthey for allowing us to film at this amazing estate and sharing with us the many stories of its rich history. Walker Mansion, Salt Lake City, Utah The Walkers enjoyed musical soirees nearly every Sunday evening as friends and music lovers gathered at the home. Nationally, famous artists were also regularly featured at the home. The home's unique feature was the $25,000 Aeolian pipe organ. It took five weeks to install the 1,500 pipes that extended from the first to the third story, with the mechanism in the basement.
The Renaissance Style home, with its cream colored stucco exterior and red Spanish tile roof, was constructed at a cost of more than $275,000 in 1904. Among its luxurious features, in addition to the organ, was a $5,000 Otis elevator, a wine cellar, a bowling alley, and, south of the house, a tennis court. Also on the site was a stable with stalls for six horses and room for eight carriages.
From the large veranda at the front of the house, one entered a vestibule and then the grand hall, or music room, which extended fifty feet across the width of the house. The woodwork was dark-stained oak. Red silk velvet lined the wall panels. The rugs, of a matching crimson color, were made in England by the same firm that made rugs for Warwick Castle. A large stone fireplace inscribed with "East West Hame's (Home) Best", side benches, deep couches and comfortable chairs upholstered in red velour, gives the music room its special flavor.
Overhead was a sight that would always linger in one's memory. Heavy oak trusses supported an immense skylight of Tiffany glass patterned like a grape arbor. Hanging from the glorious ceiling, a Tiffany chandelier in a fruit bowl design lent added enchantment. On the east front was a French drawing room. The walls were ivory touched with gilt in the frescoes and complemented by pale blue satin brocade wall panels. A delightful white marble fireplace and mantel were bordered by two narrow art glass windows in delicate blues designed by Tiffany.
