Marianne (pronounced: [maʁjan]) is a national symbol of the French Republic, an allegory of liberty and reason, and a portrayal of the Goddess of Liberty.
Marianne is displayed in many places in France and holds a place of honour in town halls and law courts. She symbolizes the "Triumph of the Republic", a bronze sculpture overlooking the Place de la Nation in Paris. Her profile stands out on the official government logo of the country, is engraved on French euro coins and appears on French postage stamps; it also was featured on the former franc currency. Marianne is one of the most prominent symbols of the French Republic, and is officially used on most government documents.
Marianne is a significant republican symbol, opposed to monarchy, and an icon of freedom and democracy against all forms of dictatorship. Other national symbols of France include the tricolor flag, the national motto Liberté, Égalité, Fraternité, the national anthem La Marseillaise, as well as the coat of arms and the official Great Seal of France.

Leonard Norman Cohen, CC GOQ (born 21 September 1934) is a Canadian singer, songwriter, musician, painter, poet, and novelist. His work has explored religion, politics, isolation, sexuality, and personal relationships. Cohen has been inducted into both the Canadian Music Hall of Fame and the Canadian Songwriters Hall of Fame as well as the American Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. He is also a Companion of the Order of Canada, the nation's highest civilian honor. In 2011, Cohen received a Princess of Asturias Awards for literature.
The critic Bruce Eder assessed Cohen's overall career in popular music by asserting that "[he is] one of the most fascinating and enigmatic … singer/songwriters of the late '60s … [and] has retained an audience across four decades of music-making.... Second only to Bob Dylan (and perhaps Paul Simon) [in terms of influence], he commands the attention of critics and younger musicians more firmly than any other musical figure from the 1960s who is still working at the outset of the 21st century."

(Love her in the night time)
Anytime we love's the right time
[CHORUS]
All night, all day, Marianne
Down by the seaside sifting sand
Even little children love Marianne
(Everybody love her)
Down by the seaside sifting sand
Marianne, oh, Marianne
Oh, won't you marry me
We can have a bamboo hut
And brandy in the tea
Leave your fat old mama home
She never will say yes
If mama don't know now
She can guess, oh, my, yes
[Repeat CHORUS]
When she walks along the shore
People pause to greet
White birds fly around her
Little fish come to her feet
(How delightful)
In her heart is love
But I'm the only mortal man
Who's allowed to kiss my Marianne
Don't rush me
[Repeat CHORUS]
When we marry, we will have
A time you never saw
I will be so happy
I will kiss my mother-in-law
(Ha ha ha ha)
Children by the dozen
In and out the bamboo hut
One for every palm tree
And coconut (hurry up now)
[Repeat CHORUS]
All night, all day
