Soundtrack Q & A
Q: Hello, I would love to know the name of the song that is played on Grandmom's music box from the movie "Patch of Blue" (the one that Sydney Portier sings along to briefly, in French). Can you help me with that? (from Daniel in Oak Ridge, Tennessee, USA)
A: Daniel, the French children's song from the music box is "Il pleut, il pleut Bergère". The portion of the song that Sidney Poitier sings is, in French, then in English:
Il pleut, il pleut bergère, 
(It is raining, it is raining, shepherdess
)

Rentre tes blancs moutons,
(Bring in your white sheep)


Allons sous ma chaumière
(Let's go my (thatched) cottage
)

Bergère, vite, allons.
(Shepherdess, let's go, quickly)


J'entends sous le feuillage
(I hear from under the leaves)


L'eau qui tombe à grand bruit,
(water falling loudly
)

Voici, venir l'orage
(Here comes the storm)


Voilà l'éclair qui luit.
(And there bright lightning)
It is the introduction to a song in which a shepherd rescues the shepherdess, takes her in to present to his mother, then arranges to ask for her hand in marriage. (thanks to mishonok, Saratoga, CA, USAadd more info
