T'es venu de loin

You came from far away, you came from far away,
You came from very, very far away.
Oh, if one day you come back, come, come,
You, Jesus the dying man,
Surely it's in our house
That we'll take good care of you.
When you come back, my two boys
Will be there there there there there.
They will ask you thirty thousand questions
To which you will answer:
Did you come from far away? - Very far.
Did it take you long? - Long.
Why are you pale? - I don't know.
Do you have children? - Yes, many.
Are you hungry? - A little.
Can you draw? - Not very well.
Draw me a picture! - Here you go!
Is it beautiful where you're from? - Very beautiful.
How did you come? - By foot.
Do you have a mom? - Of course!
What's her name? - Marie.
What's on your hands? - Nothing.

But when you come back, it will be good good good.
When you come back, it will be good, yes.
When you come back, it will be good good good:
You'll be at home just like at your own place.
When you come back from so far far far,
You'll surprise our neighbors, yes,
But you won't surprise my boys
Who will ask their thirty thousand questions:
Did you come from far away? - Very far.
Did it take you long? - Long.
Why are you pale? - I don't know.
Do you have children? - Yes, many.
Are you hungry? - A little.
Can you draw? - Not very well.
Draw me a picture. - Here you go.
Is it beautiful where you're from? - Very beautiful.
How did you come? - By foot.
Do you have a mom? - Of course!
What's her name? - Marie.
What's on your hands? - Nothing.
