Sous le ciel de Paris [English translation]

Under the Parisian sky

A song is revealed,

Hum, Hum

It is born today

Within the heart of a boy

The Parisian Sky

See romantic walks

Lovers showing that

They are happy

Under the Bercy Brigde

A philosopher is sitting

Two musicians, a few onlookers

Then people by the thousands

The Parisian sky

Dawn is singing

An eternal love song

About this old town

Beside Notre Dame

Sometimes filled with drama

Yes, but in Panama

Everything can be arranged;

Some rays

Of the summer sky

A sailor's accordion.

Hope flourishes

Under the Parisian sky

Under the Parisian Sky

A joyous river is flowing

It sleeps in the night.

Tramps and beggars

Under the Parisian Sky

The Good Lord's Birds

Are coming from the entire world

In order to chat with each other

And the Parisian sky

Has a secret for him

For twenty centuries he is enamoured

By our St Louis' Island

When she smiles at him.

He puts his blue coat on

When it's raining over Paris

That's what is unfortunate

When he is too jealous,

Of the millions of lovers.

He scolds us

His thunder bursting

But the Parisian sky

Is no longer cruel

In order to forgive us

It offers us a rainbow.
