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 beautiful children

That he is strong and very much alive

I will tell him that he was born from 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 that he still has got time

Yes my lord, he still has got time

And that life may call him, and that the world waits for him

that earth is so beautiful and the sky so large

That he is nice 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 the one-of-a-kind

I will tell him, that here on earth everything must be

learned: good, evil and even happiness,

That he must never loose his child's eyes.

In front of too much tragedy and ugliness

he has to look with his heart.

I will tell him to behave well and to be careful

To brush against ice and fire

To taste everything but never to be dependent on anything

That too much can be worse than too little

Oh much worse than too little

And that life may call him, and that the world waits for him

that earth is so beautiful and the sky so large

That he is nice 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 the 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 wealths 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 with happiness and tears

But that we will be there, step by step

That this is life and its rules

And that life may call him, and that the world waits for him

that earth is so beautiful and the sky so large

That he is nice 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 the one-of-a-kind

That he is nice and that I love him,

That behond mystery

He is my best reason to live

my answer to eternity
