Original text with translation
Julien Clerc
Il disait à son fils
comment était le monde, comment était la vie…
Puis il posait son doigt sur une mappemonde,
nous irons par ici.
c etait des océans, la mer et le rivage,
le pays merveilleux…
Son fils l ecoutait,
lisait sur son visage
puis il fermait les yeux…
ce n est qu une chanson, ne la croyez pas triste,
ta ba da da da da on se promene ainsi.
on croit que l on avance,
on sait que l on existe.
ta ba da da da da avec des mais, des si…
il est devenu vieux,
il n a pas voyagé.
le pere avec son fils.
car on remet sans cesse,
à demain sans bouger,
comme un feu d artifice
qui n eclaterait pas dans le ciel où sans bruit,
vers le draps on se glisse.
et puis on se regarde, un jour on a changé,
une chaude pelisse…
ce n est qu une chanson,
ne la croyez pas triste.
ta ba da da da da on se promene ainsi.
on croit que l on avance,
on sait que l on existe.
ta ba da da da da avec des mais, des si…
au fond d un grand jardin,
le pere dit a son fils, comment etait la vie.
le miracle des jours où quelques fois se glisse
un peu de poesie.
puis il lui prend la main,
le voyage d ulysse,
demain ce sera lui…
et tous les 2 se taisent,
que le matin finisse,
mais le fils a grandi…
ce n est qu une chanson, ne la croyez pas triste.
ta ba da da da da on se promene ainsi.
on croit que l on avance,
on sait que l on existe.
ta ba da da da da avec des mais, des si…
He said to his son
how was the world, how was life...
Then he put his finger on a world map,
we'll go this way.
it was oceans, sea and shore,
Wonderland...
His son listened to him,
read his face
then he closed his eyes...
it's just a song, don't think it's sad,
ta ba da da da we walk like this.
we believe that we are moving forward,
we know we exist.
your ba da da da with buts, ifs…
he grew old,
he did not travel.
the father with his son.
because we constantly put back,
see you tomorrow without moving,
like fireworks
that would not burst into the sky where noiseless,
towards the sheets we slip.
and then we look at each other, one day we changed,
a warm coat…
it's just a song,
don't think she's sad.
ta ba da da da we walk like this.
we believe that we are moving forward,
we know we exist.
your ba da da da with buts, ifs…
at the bottom of a large garden,
the father told his son, how life was.
the miracle of the days when sometimes slips
A little poetry.
then he takes her hand,
the journey of ulysses,
tomorrow it will be him...
and both are silent,
let the morning end,
but the son has grown...
it's just a song, don't think it's sad.
ta ba da da da we walk like this.
we believe that we are moving forward,
we know we exist.
your ba da da da with buts, ifs…
