País petit [English translation]

My country is so little

that when the sun goes to sleep

is never completely sure of having seen it.

The old wise women say

it's the reason why it comes back.

Maybe it's true that they exaggeratte it,

it doesn't matter! that's how I like it

and I wouldn't know something else to say.

I sing and I'll always be

lovesick for my country.

My country is so little

that from the top of a bell tower

you can always see the neighbour bell tower.

They say that the small villages are afraid,

are afraid of being alone,

are afraig of being too much old,

it doesn't matter! that's how I like it

and I wouldn't know something else to say.

I sing and I'll always be

lovesick for my country.

My country is so little

that can always be inside the heart

if the life takes you away from here

and we become smugglers,

while they don't discover

detectors for heart secrets.

And it's like this, that's how I like it

and I wouldn't know something else to say.

I sing and I'll always be

lovesick for my country.

My country is so little

that when the sun goes to sleep

is never completely sure of having seen it.
