Sous les ponts de Paris [English translation]

To go at Suresnes or Charenton

along the seine we pass under the bridges

all Paris in boat parade

the heart full of liveliness it comes and goes

but at the night when everything sleep quietly.......

Under the briges of Paris when night come down

all kind of beggar sneak in secret

and are happy to find a bed comforter ,

Hotel of wind where we pay less

the parfum and water that's for nothing my men

under the bridges of Paris

At the exit of the factory, Juliot meet Nini

How are you, it's the party today

take this bouquet, some sprigs of lily of the valley

that's less but that's all my fortune

come with me: i know the place

where we are not afraid by the moonlight

Under the bridges of Paris

since there is not enough to offer a room

a happy couple come to love in secret

and the eyes on the eyes by doing blue dreams

Julot share the kiss of Nini

under the bridges of Paris

Worried by poverty, driven from her home,

we seen a poor mother with her three children

on the way without fire or bread

They will suffer their atrocious fate.

soon the mother said

finally my kids are going to sleep.

Under the bridges of Paris when night come down

Come to sleep near the Seine

in their sleep they will forget their pain

if we help them a little all the true poor person

no more suicide or crimes in the night

under the bridges of Paris
