Les neiges de Finlande
Édith Piaf
The Snows of Finland
A dream has traveled the world
On the shoulders of a sailor
A dream has traveled the world
It was mine…
My dream has taken beautiful journeys
And brings me back some gifts
In the hands of my clouds
It holds the sky of Borneo
Everything it says becomes wonderful
The world is full of buzzing bees
And I believe it!
The wicked wolf is an archangel
The ogres eat oranges
And I believe it!
Cinderellas spin the wool
To dress up the Boogeyman
And I believe it!
So I sleep on legends
And I can see from my attic
The snows of Finland falling
On the Christmases of Aubervilliers…
