JE VOUDRAIS TE DONNER
1 January 1983

Je voudrais te donner
le bonheur
des amis
des rires
des sourires
de mon amour

Je voudrais te donner
le bonheur
des animaux fidèles
des pluies d’été
des ruisseaux étincelants sous le soleil
des oiseaux de toutes les couleurs.

Je voudrais te donner
le bonheur
du courage quand la vie est dure
de l’espoir quand ton ciel est noir
de la foi quand le courage et l’espoir
t’échappent.

Je voudrais te donner
le bonheur
d’être heureux
sans moi
s’il faut être sans moi.

Je voudrais te donner
Le Bonheur
puisque
tu es
Mon Bonheur.

I WOULD LIKE TO GIVE YOU
1 January 1983

I would like to give you
the happiness
of friends
of laughter
of smiles
of my love.

I would like to give you
the happiness
of faithful animals
of summer rains
of sparkling streams under the sun
of bird of all colours.

I would like to give you
the happiness
of courage when life is hard
of hope when your sky is black
of faith when courage and hope
escape you.

I would like to give you
the happiness
of being happy
without me
if you have to be without me.

I would like to give you
Happiness
since
you are
My Happiness.

For you are the smile in my heart
And the light of my joy
