French Lyrics:

Il revient à ma mémoire
des souvenirs familiers.
Il revient à ma mémoire
des souvenirs familiers.
Il revient à ma mémoire
des souvenirs familiers.

Je revois ma blouse noire
lorsque j'étais écolier.
Sur le chemin de l'école
je chantais à pleine voix
des romances sans paroles
vieilles chansons d'autrefois.

Douce France.
Cher pays de mon enfance.
Bercée de tendre insouciance.
Je t'ai gardée dans mon cœur!
Mon village au clocher
aux maisons sages.
Où les enfants de mon âge
ont partagé mon bonheur.
Oui, je t'aime
et je te donne ce poème.
Oui, je t'aime,
dans la joie ou la douleur.

J'ai connu des paysages
et des soleils merveilleux.
Au cours de lointains voyages.
Tout là-bas sous d'autres cieux.
Mais combien je la préfère
mon ciel bleu, mon horizon,
ma grande route et ma rivière,
ma prairie et ma maison.

Douce France.
Cher pays de mon enfance.
Bercée de tendre insouciance.
Je t'ai gardée dans mon cœur!
Mon village au clocher
aux maisons sages.
Où les enfants de mon âge
ont partagé mon bonheur.
Oui, je t'aime et je te donne ce poème.
Oui, je t'aime,
dans la joie ou la douleur.
Douce France.
Cher pays de mon enfance.
Bercée de tendre insouciance.
Je t'ai gardée dans mon cœur!
Mon village au clocher
aux maisons sages.
Où les enfants de mon âge
ont partagé mon bonheur.

English Translation:

It comes back to my mind
familiar memories.
It comes back to my mind
familiar memories.
It comes back to my mind
familiar memories.

I visualize my black blouse
when I was a schoolboy.
On the way to school
I sang out loud
ballads without words
old songs of yesteryears.

Sweet France.
Dear country of my childhood.
Cradled in such carefree blissfulness.
I've kept you in my heart!
My village with the bell tower
with the noble houses.
Where the kids of my age
have shared my bliss.
Yes, I love you
and I give you this poem.
Yes, I love you,
in joy or in pain.

I've known landscapes
and these wonderful suns.
On distant journeys.
Far away under other skies.
But how much I prefer
my blue sky, my horizon,
my main road and my river,
my meadow and my house.

Sweet France.
Dear country of my childhood.
Cradled in such carefree blissfulness.
I've kept you in my heart!
My village with the bell tower
with the noble houses.
Where the kids of my age
have shared my bliss.
Yes, I love you and I give you this poem.
Yes, I love you,
in joy or in pain.
Sweet France.
Dear country of my childhood.
Cradled in such carefree blissfulness.
I've kept you in my heart!
My village with the bell tower
with the noble houses.
Where the kids of my age
have shared my bliss.
