Les yeux bleus [English translation]

Not everyone on earth

Can have blue eyes

But I'd love you all the same

Even if you didn't have blue eyes

But you had such luck

You won already

Because you have blue eyes

Yes, you have blue eyes

And since we both live

As if in a dream

We think that the good Lord

Must also have blue eyes

It's so amazing

To be so happy

Because you have blue eyes

Yes, you have blue eyes

I will always remember

That first day

Once I woke up

I read in the blue of the sky

That today would be a day

Of a great love

That's why this May twelfth

When I met you

The birds and the sky and I

Were not even surprised

At the bend of the river

In a great light

By you smiling at me

Right in the middle

Of a blueberry field

There you were with... your blue eyes

Not everyone on earth

Can have blue eyes

But I'd love you all the same

Even if you didn't have blue eyes

But you had such luck

You won already

Because you have blue eyes

Yes, you have blue eyes

I will always remember

That first day

Once I woke up

I read in the blue of the sky

That today would be a day

Of a great love

And since we both live

As if in a dream

We think that the good Lord

Must also have blue eyes

Life has no problems

Because we love each other

If it so happens sometimes

That I'm far away from you

I'll close my eyes

To see even better

Your blue eyes... Your blue eyes... Your blue eyes...
