Dans les rêves de l’enfance
Dans l’élève que le maître a puni
Dans la gare où commence
La première aventure de la vie
Dans celui qui doute
Dans celui qui croit
Tu verras, tu te reconnaîtras
À chaque instant, dans chaque joie, dans chaque larme
Tu verras, tu te reconnaîtras
Dans cet enfant, parmi ces gens, tous comme toi
Dans les rêves de l’artiste
Que la gloire n’a jamais couronné
Dans ce monde égoïste
Qui renie ce qu’il a adore
Dans ceux qui ont peur
Dans ceux qui ont froid
Tu verras, tu te reconnaîtras
À chaque instant, dans chaque joie, dans chaque larme
Tu verras, tu te reconnaîtras
Dans cet enfant, parmi ces gens, tous comme toi
Tu verras, tu te reconnaîtras
Dans cet amour que j’ai pour toi
In the dreams of childhood
In the student that the teacher has punished
In the train station where
The first adventure of life begins
In the one who doubts
In the one who believes
You’ll see, you’ll recognise yourself
At every moment, in each joy, in each tear
You’ll see, you’ll recognise yourself
In that child, surrounded by those people, just like you
In the dreams of the artist
That glory has never awarded
In that egoistic world
That denies what it has loved
In those who are scared
In those who are cold
You’ll see, you’ll recognise yourself
At every moment, in every joy, in every tear
You’ll see, you’ll recognise yourself
In that child, surrounded by those people, just like you
You’ll see, you’ll recognise yourself
In that love that I have for you
