Le jour où la pluie viendra [English translation]

The day rain comes

We shall be, you and me

The wealthiest in the world

The wealthiest in the world

Trees weeping with joy

Will offer as gifts

The sweetest fruits in the world

The sweetest fruits in the world

On that day

The sad, sad red soil

That cracks, cracks everywhere

The bare and immovable branches

Will get soaked with rain, with rain

And wheat will flow like waves

Deep into abandoned granaries

And I shall lavish you with finger rings

And pretty, pretty necklaces

The day rain comes

We shall be, you and me

The fiancés of the world

The wealthiest in the world

Trees weeping with joy

Will offer as gifts

The sweetest fruits in the world

The sweetest fruits in the world

On that day

On that day

• Artist:Gilbert Bécaud
