I was walking in the streets
like a lost child
I was alone, I was cold
you Paris, you have embraced me
I will not see her again
the girl who smiled at me
she only turned her head and that's that
but in her eyes I understood
that in the stone city
where you feel like a foreigner
there is always happiness in the air
for those who want to be in love
and the heart of the city
has beaten under my feet
from Passy to Belleville
you Paris, you have embraced me
Along the Champs-Élysées
the lights that come there
when I crossed the café terraces
they offered me their seats
Saint-Germain greeted me
Saint-Benoît street, Dufour street
I danced a whole night
with the prettiest girls
In the morning daylight
before the last cream
I closed my eyes there
you Paris you have embraced me
On the docks of the island of Saint-Louis
Fishermen, lovers
I envied them, but the Seine told me
to sit with them
I know it today
we are two friends
I thank you deeply
you Paris, you have embraced me
You Paris, I am comfortable in your arms
You Paris, I am comfortable in your arms
You Paris, I am comfortable in your arms
You Paris, I am comfortable in your arms
