À Paris [English translation]

In Paris

when a love blooms

this lasts for weeks making

two hearts to smile at each other

just because they love each other

in Paris

In springtime

the weathervanes on the roofs

turn and make like flirts

with the first wind

that passes indifferent

nonchalant

'Cause the wind

when it comes to Paris

doesn't have but one single concern

this is to go strolling around

in all the beautiful neighbourhoods

of Paris

The sun

who is its old friend

is also a guest at the party

and like two college students

they go on a spree

in Paris

And hand in hand

they go without falling on each other

looking along the way

if Paris has changed

There are always

the hit and run taxis

that board you illegaly

before the taxi stop

where there's still a policeman

for the taxis

At the café

you can see doesn't matter who

drinking doesn't matter what

talking with gestures

and who's there since morning

at the café

There's Seine

at doesn't matter what time

having her visitors

looking into her eyes

these are her lovers

at Seine's

And there are those

those who made their nest

near Seine's bed

and who wash at noon

every day of the week

in Seine

And the others

those who are sick and tired

because they've seen an awful lot

and who want to forget

well they jump there into the water

but Seine...

...she prefers

to see the pretty boats

strolling on her

and on her flow

they play caravels

on Seine

Trouble

there isn't just in Paris

there's in the whole world

yes but the whole world

isn't Paris at all

that's the trouble

In Paris

on the 14th of July

in the light of paper lanterns

we dance without stopping

to the sound of the accordion

in the streets

In Paris ever since

we took Bastille

in all suburbs

and at every crossroad

there are guys

and there are girls

who are running round and round

without rest day and night

on the pavements

in Paris
