Je lui dirai qu'il est de ce pays Où son grand-père était bûcheron Que dans son sang l'Orient coule aussi Que les mélanges font de beaux enfants Qu'il est fort et bien vivant Je lui dirai qu'il est né de l'amour Que nous l'attendions passionnément Que chaque nuit s'efface au nouveau jour Qu'il sera grand mais qu'il a bien le temps Oh Dieu, qu'il a bien le temps Et que la vie l'appelle, que le monde l'attend Que la terre est si belle et le ciel est si grand Qu'il est beau, que je l'aime, qu'il est ma vie, ma joie Qu'il est un parmi des millions d'humains Mais bien l'unique pour moi Je lui dirai qu'ici-bas, tout s'apprend Le bien, le mal et même le bonheur Qu'il ne perde jamais ses yeux d'enfant Devant trop de malheurs et de laideur Qu'il regarde avec son cœur Je lui dirai d'être sage et prudent D'aller frôler les glaces et les feux Qu'il goûte à tout mais sans jamais dépendre Que trop peut être pire que trop peu Oh, bien pire que trop peu Et que la vie l'appelle, que le monde l'attend Que la terre est si belle et le ciel est si grand Qu'il est beau, que je l'aime, qu'il est ma vie, ma joie Qu'il est un parmi des millions d'humains Mais bien l'unique pour moi Je lui dirai les chansons, les poèmes Qu'il n'y a pas d'amour sans histoire Que le bonheur est un grain que l'on sème Qu'amour et santé ne s'achètent pas Et qu'on n'est riche que de ça Je lui dirai qu'un jour une autre femme Viendra l'aimer et qu'il l'aimera Que j'en mourrai de bonheur et de larmes Mais que nous serons là pas après pas Que c'est la vie et sa loi Et que la vie l'appelle, que le monde l'attend Que la terre est si belle et le ciel est si grand Qu'il est beau, que je l'aime, qu'il est ma vie, ma joie Qu'il est un parmi des millions d'humains Mais bien l'unique pour moi
