Je lui dirai [English translation]

I will tell him that he comes from this country

Where his father was a treefeller

And that the East also runs in his veins

And that such mixes make very beautiful children

That he is strong and very much alive

I will tell him that he was born of love

That we were waiting for him with excitement

That every night makes way for a new day

That he will grow up one day but he still has got time

Yes my lord, he still has got time

And that life may call to him, and that the world will await him

And that earth is that beautiful and the sky so large

That he is beautiful and that I love him, that he's my life, my joy

That he is one amongst millions of people

But for me he's a one-of-a-kind

I will tell him that you have to learn everything here inside

The good, the bad and even happiness

That he shall never loose his eyes of a child

In front of all the ugliness and tragedy

That he shall always look with the help of his heart

I will tell him to behave well and to be careful

To brush against ice and fire

To get a taste of everything but never to be dependent on anything

That very little things could be worse

Oh only very few things could be worse

And that life may call to him, and that the world will await him

And that earth is that beautiful and the sky so large

That he is beautiful and that I love him, that he's my life, my joy

That he is one amongst millions of people

But for me he's a one-of-a-kind

I will tell him the songs and the poems

That there's no love without trouble

That happiness is a seed that you sow

That you can't buy love and health

And that those things are the only riches you have

I will tell him that one day another woman

Will come and love him and that he will love her

That I will die out of happiness and of tears

But that we will be there step after step

That that is life and its rules

And that life may call to him, and that the world will await him

And that earth is that beautiful and the sky so large

That he is beautiful and that I love him, that he's my life, my joy

That he is one amongst millions of people

But for me he's a one of a kind
