Sous Le Ciel De Paris(original) |
Sous le ciel de Paris, |
S’envole une chanson. |
Elle est nee d’aujourd’hui |
Dans le coeur d’un garcon. |
Sous le ciel de Paris, |
Marchent les amoureux. |
Leur bonheur se construit |
Sur un fait pour eux. |
Sous le pont de Bercy, |
Un philosophe assis, |
Deux musiciens, quelques badauds |
Puis des gens par milliers, |
Sous le ciel de Paris, |
Jusqu’au soir, vont chanter |
L’hymne d’un peuple epris |
De sa vieille Cite. |
Pres de Notre-Dame, |
Parfois, couve un drame, |
Oui, mais a Paname, |
Tout peut s’arranger. |
Quelques rayons du ciel d’ete, |
L’accordeon d’un marinier, |
L’espoir fleurit |
Au ciel de Paris. |
Sous le ciel de Paris, |
Coule un fleuve joyeux. |
Il endort, dans la nuit, |
Les clochards et les gueux. |
Sous le ciel de Paris, |
Les oiseaux du Bon Dieu |
Viennent du monde entier |
Pour bavarder entre eux |
Et le ciel de Paris |
A son secret pour lui. |
Depuis vingt siecles, il est epris |
De notre ile Saint-Louis. |
Quand elle lui sourit, |
Il met son habit bleu. |
Quand il pleut sur Paris, |
C’est qu’il est malheureux. |
Quand il est trop jaloux |
De ses millions d’amants, |
Il fait gronder sur eux |
Son tonnerre eclatant |
Mais le ciel de Paris n’est pas longtemps |
cruel… |
Pour se faire pardonner, il offre un arc-en-ciel… |
(translation) |
Under Paris Skies, |
A song flies away. |
She was born today |
In a boy's heart. |
Under Paris Skies, |
Walk the lovers. |
Their happiness is built |
On a fact for them. |
Under the Bercy bridge, |
A seated philosopher, |
Two musicians, a few onlookers |
Then people by the thousands, |
Under Paris Skies, |
Until the evening, will sing |
The anthem of a people in love |
From his old City. |
Near Notre-Dame, |
Sometimes there's a drama, |
Yes, but in Panama, |
Everything can be arranged. |
A few rays from the summer sky, |
A sailor's accordion, |
hope blooms |
In the sky of Paris. |
Under Paris Skies, |
Flows a merry river. |
He falls asleep, in the night, |
The bums and the beggars. |
Under Paris Skies, |
God's Birds |
Come from all over the world |
To chat with each other |
And the sky of Paris |
To his secret for him. |
For twenty centuries he has been in love |
From our island Saint-Louis. |
When she smiles at him, |
He puts on his blue coat. |
When it rains in Paris, |
It's that he's unhappy. |
When he's too jealous |
Of his millions of lovers, |
He roars at them |
Its crashing thunder |
But the sky of Paris is not long |
cruel… |
To be forgiven, he offers a rainbow... |
