Song information On this page you can read the lyrics of the song Les enfants paradis , by - Saez. Les enfants paradis(original) |
| Ils étaient des sourires, ils étaient des sanglots |
| Ils étaient de ces rires que font les chants d’oiseaux |
| Ils étaient des matins quand on va bord de mer |
| Ils étaient cœur chagrin, ils étaient cœur lumière |
| Ils étaient des poèmes, ils étaient des oiseaux |
| Ils étaient des «je t’aime» qu’on dit bord du ruisseau |
| Ils étaient du café, ils étaient du bistrot |
| Ils étaient étrangers, ils étaient sans drapeau |
| Ils étaient de Paris, ils étaient de province |
| Ils étaient cœur de pluie qui font mon cœur qui grince |
| Ils étaient plein de vie, avaient l'œil du printemps |
| Ils étaient cœur qui rit quand le ciel est pleurant |
| Ils étaient des promesses, ils étaient devenir |
| Ils étaient bien trop jeunes, oui pour devoir partir |
| Ils étaient fils d’Orient ou fils de l’Occident |
| Enfants du paradis, enfants du Bataclan |
| Ils étaient cœur français ou international |
| Ils étaient la rosée qui pleure dessous le châle |
| Ils étaient des promesses, ils étaient des bourgeons |
| Qui font monter tristesse, ils étaient des chansons |
| Ils étaient des familles, ils étaient des amis |
| Ils étaient ce qui brille dans le ciel de la nuit |
| Ils étaient amoureux ceux qui se sont blottis |
| L’un contre l’autre, à deux contre la tyrannie |
| Ils étaient comme toi, ils étaient comme moi |
| Ils n'étaient pas guerriers mais sont morts au combat |
| Ils étaient cœur d’amour, ils étaient cœur qui bat |
| Puis qui battra toujours même en dessous la croix |
| Ils étaient ces amis que je connaissais pas |
| Ils étaient mon pays et puis le tiens je crois |
| Ils resteront Paris, Paris se souviendra |
| Toujours de ces amis, la lumière brillera |
| Ils s’appelaient je t’aime, ils s’appelaient jeunesse |
| Ils s’appelaient poèmes, ils s’appelaient tendresse |
| Ils s’appelaient frangines, ils s’appelaient frangins |
| Ils s’appelaient gamines, ils s’appelaient gamins |
| Ils s’appelaient la joie et puis la non violence |
| Ils s’appelaient je crois les enfants de la France |
| De tous les horizons puis de tous les prénoms |
| Ils s’appelaient amour, s’appelaient l’horizon |
| Ils s’appelaient Jacques Brel puis je crois Barbara |
| Ils s’appelaient le ciel, ils s’appelaient pourquoi |
| Toujours ici sommeille l’horreur au creux du bois |
| Qui rejoint l’Eternel, va l’innocent je crois |
| Ils étaient poings levés, ils étaient nos concerts |
| Ils étaient cœur serré, oui face aux tortionnaires |
| Ils étaient cœur d'œillets, des fleurs face aux fusils |
| A nos cœurs endeuillés, nous pleurons nos amis |
| A l’innocent qu’on tue, oui tombé sous les balles |
| Au soldat inconnu, sous l’horreur des mitrailles |
| Si sont les lettres mortes, les cantiques du chagrin |
| Puisque frappent à la porte les plaines de Verdun |
| Si sont tombés ce soir, en ce vendredi noir |
| Les frères de mon pays, nous laissant désespoir |
| Mon pays, ta culture est morte assassinée |
| Mais tu sais ma culture, non ne mourra jamais |
| Toi mon pays Molière, toi mon pays Vinci |
| Toi mon pays Voltaire, toi mon pays Valmy |
| Toi mon pays la Terre, toi mon pays Paris |
| Toi mon pays parterre, relève-toi mon pays |
| Toi mon pays lumière, toi mon pays la vie |
| Mon pays littéraire, mon pays triste vie |
| Toi mon pays mes frères, toi frère de mon pays |
| Comme on chérit sa mère, on chérit sa patrie |
| (translation) |
| They were smiles, they were sobs |
| They were those laughs that birdsong makes |
| They were mornings when we go to the seaside |
| They were sorrow hearts, they were light hearts |
| They were poems, they were birds |
| They were "I love you" that we say on the edge of the stream |
| They were coffee, they were pub |
| They were foreign, they were flagless |
| They were from Paris, they were from the provinces |
| They were hearts of rain that make my heart creak |
| They were full of life, had the eye of spring |
| They were laughing hearts when the sky is crying |
| They were promises, they were becoming |
| They were way too young, yes to have to leave |
| They were sons of the East or sons of the West |
| Children of paradise, children of Bataclan |
| They were French or international heart |
| They were the dew crying under the shawl |
| They were promises, they were buds |
| That raise sadness, they were songs |
| They were families, they were friends |
| They were what shines in the night sky |
| They were in love those who huddled together |
| One against another, two against tyranny |
| They were like you, they were like me |
| They weren't warriors but died in battle |
| They were hearts of love, they were beating hearts |
| Then who will always beat even below the cross |
| They were those friends I didn't know |
| They were my country and then yours I believe |
| They will remain Paris, Paris will remember |
| Always of these friends, the light will shine |
| They were called I love you, they were called youth |
| They were called poems, they were called tenderness |
| They were called brothers, they were called brothers |
| They were called kids, they were called kids |
| They were called joy and then nonviolence |
| They were called I believe the children of France |
| From all walks of life then from all first names |
| They were called love, they were called the horizon |
| They were called Jacques Brel then I believe Barbara |
| They were called heaven, they were called why |
| Still here slumbers the horror in the hollow of the wood |
| Who joins the Lord, goes the innocent I believe |
| They were raised fists, they were our concerts |
| They were heartbroken, yes in the face of the torturers |
| They were hearts of carnations, flowers facing guns |
| To our bereaved hearts we mourn our friends |
| To the innocent that we kill, yes fallen under the bullets |
| To the unknown soldier, under the horror of grapeshot |
| If are the dead letters, the songs of sorrow |
| Since knocking at the door the plains of Verdun |
| If fell tonight, on this Black Friday |
| The brothers of my country, leaving us in despair |
| My country, your culture died murdered |
| But you know my culture, no will never die |
| You my country Molière, you my country Vinci |
| You my country Voltaire, you my country Valmy |
| You my country Earth, you my country Paris |
| You my country on the ground, get up my country |
| You my country of light, you my country of life |
| My literary country, my sad life country |
| You my country my brothers, you brother of my country |
| As one cherishes one's mother, one cherishes one's homeland |
