La vie populaire [English translation]

I love the easiness

Of summer's days

The lovely moments grasped

The breakfasts in the grass.

I love sipping the coffee in winter

And passing the drink to another

Seizing the chance at playing cards,

Just before it runs.

We are all the same

In this story

Which ends in the dark

I say: It is not even sure

That we are not all alike

We are in this all together.

Chorus:

Life,it is ordinary life

All my fugitive life

Life, common life

To which I'd never say goodbye

Life, common life

As the life of my mother

And that of my father's father

Nothing to do is my earthly life

I love naked music

The feasts in the streets

The one night passions

The unknown dances

I like when at the end of the match

We joke and we chat

And when we tell our stories

To our religious wives

We are all the same

In this story

Which ends in the dark

I say: It is not even sure

we don't all look alike

We are in this all together .

{Refrain}

I love buddies and jokes

Sometimes vague

Like the sorrows we share

At any age

I love families who on saying goodbye

They laugh and they kiss

And they say "Come back soon

Because life passes by "

We are all the same

In this story

Who ends up in the dark

I say :It is not even sure

We don't all look alike

We are in this all together.

{Refrain}
