Les Neiges de Finlande [English translation]

I had a dream I took a tour around the world

On the shoulders of a sailor.

A dream that I took a tour of the world.

It was mine...

My dream made a wonderful journey

And brings back presents.

In the hands of my clouds,

It puts the sky of Borneo.

Everything he says becomes wonderful.

The world is full of the noise of bees

And I believe it!

The big bad wolf is an archangel.

The orges eat oranges

And I believe it!

The Cinderellas spin wool

To dress the bogeyman

And I believe it!

So I sleep within the legends

And from my attic I can see

The snow of Finland fall,

On the Christmases of Aubervilliers...
