| C'est Si Bon (original) | C'est Si Bon (translation) |
|---|---|
| C’est si bon | It is so sweet— |
| De partir n’importe ou | To set out, footloose, where fate may call, |
| Bras dessus bras dessous | Your arm entwined in mine, a silken braid, |
| En chantant des chansons | As we stitch melodies into dawn’s own shawl. |
| C’est si bon | It is so sweet— |
| De se dire des mots doux | To trade the honeyed syllables of praise, |
| Des petits rien du tout | Small murmurs, like dew on a petal’s skin, |
| Mais qui en disent long | Yet each a lantern casting endless rays. |
| En voyant notre mine ravie | Beholding the gladness that ripens our faces, |
| Les passants dans la rue nous envient | Even strangers, passing by, covet our graces. |
| C’est si bon | It is so sweet— |
| De guetter dans ses yeux | To search the silent sea of your gaze, |
| Un espoir merveilleux | For that miraculous ember of hope, |
| Qui donne le frisson | Whose shiver fans my spirit into blaze. |
| C’est si bon | It is so sweet— |
| Cette petite sensation | This tremor, finer than a moth’s wing, |
| Ca vaut mieux qu’un million | Richer than gold heaped high in a kingly vault, |
| C’est tell’ment, tell’ment bon | So deeply, deeply sweet, no tongue could sing. |
