Pont de Pianella over the Porto River in Ota, Corse du Sud (France)

"La Corse est un petit continent,
l'Europe est une grande île."

Jacques Dutronc

Genoese Bridge over the Asco River near Asco, Haute Corse (France)

“It was then I thought of Corsica, the place we had discovered together. I craved the wind, the sun and salt, the simplicity of the island.”

Bridge over the river Restonica in Corte, Haute Corse (France) painted by Marina Vandel

La mer, le sable chaud

On l'a attendu ohhh

Les couleurs de l'été, 

les cocktails genre mojito

On veut tous êtr bronzés, 

Avoir la peau dorée

S'fabriquer des souv'nirs

Ça nous fait tous rêver

Ça nous fait tous rêver

Mais l'été il est où?

Pour moi la Corsica

Jp'eux pas partir sans toi

Impossible, je peux pas

Impossible, je peux pas

Corsica, song by Monteur Baptiste

Spina Cavaddu Bridge over the Rizzanesse River in Sarténe, Corse du Sud (France)

In un scornu di lu mondu,

Ci hè un locucciu tenerezza
Ind'u mio core, maestosu,
Imbalsama di purezza
Ghjuvellu di maraviglie,
Ùn ne circate sumiglie,
Ùn truverete la para ;
Ghjè ùnica, sola è cara.
Corsica.

Lyrics from Corsica, 

song by Patrick Bruel

Pianella Bridge crossing the river Porto in Ota, Corse du Sud (France)

In a corner of the world
There's a sparkle of tenderness
Inside my heart, majestic
It fills you with purity
Jewel of wonders
don't look for similars
you won't find another one alike
It's unique, alone and dear.
Corsica.

Lyrics of Corsica

Petru Guelfucci
