Sous Le Ciel de Paris

Under the sky of Paris
A song takes flight
It was born today
In the heart of a boy
Under the sky of Paris
Lovers walk
Their happiness is built
On a melody made for them

Under the bridge of Bercy
A philosopher sits
Two musicians, a few passersby
Then thousands of people

Under the sky of Paris
They will sing until evening
The anthem of a people in love
With their old city
Near Notre-Dame
Sometimes a drama brews
Yes, but in Paname
Everything can be resolved
A few rays of summer sky
The accordion of a boatman
Hope blossoms
In the sky of Paris

Under the sky of Paris
Flows a joyful river
It lulls to sleep in the night
The beggars and the wretches
Under the sky of Paris
The birds of the good Lord
Come from all over the world
To chat among themselves
And the sky of Paris
Has its secret to itself
For twenty centuries it has been in love
With our Saint Louis island

When she smiles at him
He puts on his blue coat
When it rains on Paris
It's because he's unhappy
When he's too jealous
Of his millions of lovers
He makes his thunder
Roar over them
But the sky of Paris is not cruel for long
To make amends, it offers a rainbow
