Sous le ciel de Paris [English translation]

Under the Paris sky

There flies a song

Hum, hum

It's born today

In the heart of a boy

Under the Paris sky

Lovers walk

Hum, hum

Their happiness begins

With a melody made just for them

There's a philosopher sitting

Under the bridge of Bercy

Two musicians and a few gawkers

And people by thousands

Under the Paris sky

They'll sing till evening

Hum, hum

The hymn of people in love

With their old town

Near Notre Dame

Sometimes there's a drame

Yes but all can be sorted out at Paname*)

Some sun's rays

From the summer's sky

The accordion of a mariner

There's hope

In the Paris' sky

Under the Paris sky

A joyous river flows

Hum, hum

It puts to sleep at night

Vagrants and tramps

Under the Paris sky

The good Lord's birds

Come from all over the world

To have a chat together

And the Paris sky

Has his own secret

His love for Saint Louis island

Is twenty centuries old

When it smiles

Paris puts his blue habit on

Hum, hum

When it rains upon Paris

It means he's miserable

When he's too jealous

Of his millions of lovers

Hum, hum

He's rumbling upon us

His bright thunders

But the Paris sky

Is not cruel for long

Hum, hum

And he ask forgiveness

By offering a rainbow
