    Ouais
    Mon amour vient de partir
    Je sais où je vais mourir
    Au fond d'une rue aux murs mouillés
    À l'Hôtel des cœurs brisés

    Et je serai si seul, mon vieux
    Et je serai si seul
    Oh! Je serai si seul
    À en mourir

    Ouais
    Des larmes du groom coulent sans cesse
    Le portier est tout en noir
    Car ils sont restés dans la détresse
    On ne pourra plus jamais les revoir

    Et ils se sentent si seuls, mon vieux
    Ouais, ils se sentent si seuls
    Oh, ils se sentent si seuls
    Qu'ils pourraient mourir

    Ouais
    L'hôtel est toujours complet
    Mais je sais qu'il y a une place
    Pour ceux qui ont le cœur brisé
    Par un amour déchiré

    Et ils se sentent si seuls, mon vieux
    Ouais, ils se sentent si seuls
    Ils se sentent si seuls
    À en mourir

    Ouais
    Si ton amour va partir
    Que tu choisis de mourir
    Va dans la rue aux murs mouillés
    À l'Hôtel des cœurs brisés

    Où tu seras si seul, mon vieux
    Où tu seras si seul
    Où tu seras si seul
    À en mourir

    Ouais
    Mon amour vient de partir
    Je sais où je vais mourir
    Au fond d'une rue aux murs mouillés
    À l'Hôtel des cœurs brisés

    Et je serai si seul, mon vieux
    Oui, je serai si seul
    Oui, je serai si seul
    À en mourir

    Back of your old car we might get far (hi dee hi dee ho)
    In the summer breeze we feel at ease (hi dee hi dee ho)

    Hooray, hooray, it's a holi-holiday

    A Letter To You
    Composer(s): Dennis Linde
    Performer(s): Shakin' Stevens



    I tore my letter up
    I couldn't even start
    To tell you what's really in my heart
    There's only so much that words can say
    So I sent you a piece of this beautiful day
    Oh
    I want you to know that I took a rainbow
    And sent it off in a letter to you
    Took some flowers in the spring
    made a sweet clover ring
    And sent it off in a letter to you
    Took a song from the lark - the moon from the dark

    A spark with the sparkling dew
    VVith a kiss and a hug and a whole lot of love
    I sent 'em off in a letter to you
    I took the mornin' sun peekin' through the trees
    And the dandelion silk tangled in the breeze
    I folded 'em up - sealed 'em with a kiss

    It's the kind of letter that you can't resist
    Oh
    I want you to know that I took a rainbow . . .

    In a day or two - just you wait and see

    You're gonna get a special delivery
    You'll know the way I feel
    There can't be any doubt
    When you open it up
    And let the love spill out

    Oh
    I want you to know
    That I took a rainbow . . .
    You know
    I sent 'em off
    In a letter to you
    You know
    I sent 'em off
    In a letter to you. . . .

    Hooray For Hollywood
    Composer(s): Johnny Mercer; Richard Whiting
    Performer(s): Johnny 'Scat' Davis;
    and various other artists



    Hooray for Hollywood
    That screwy ballyhooey Hollywood
    Where any office boy or young mechanic can be a panic
    With just a good looking pan
    And any barmaid can be a star maid
    If she dances with or without a fan

    Hooray for Hollywood
    Where you're terrific if you're even good
    Where anyone at all from Shirley Temple to Aimee Semple
    Is equally understood
    Go out and try your luck, you might be Donald Duck
    Hooray for Hollywood

    Hooray for Hollywood
    That phoney super-Coney Hollywood
    They come from Chillicothes and Paducas with their bazookas
    To get their names up in lights
    All armed with photos from local rotos
    With their hair in ribbon and legs in tights

    Hooray for Hollywood
    You may be homely in your neighbourhood
    But if you think that you can be an actor, see Mr. Factor
    He'll make a monkey look good
    Within a half an hour you'll look like Tyrone Power
    Hooray for Hollywood

    Hooray for Hollywood

    A Letter To Myself
    Composer(s): Sandra Drayton - Eugene Record
    Performer(s): The Chi-Lites; Mike Oreilly; J.D. Smooth



    Write a letter, write another letter
    Write a letter, write another letter
    I'm sealing up this letter
    I just finished signing your name
    My friends would all be surprised
    If they knew I was playing this game
    I'll pretend it's a special delivery
    And just to give me a hint
    I'll use your favorite color
    Smear it with your favorite scent
    I know you think that I'm crazy
    But I can't loose what have I left
    So I've decided to write this letter
    And send it to myself
    So to make my story short
    In the mail box I will kiss
    This letter that I wrote
    And it's stamped with your lovely face
    When I'm alone
    And I need someone to talk to
    I talk to your picture
    Get me a pencil and paper
    And write all the things
    Say all the things I've heard you say before
    But with a little extra, extra read all about it
    Sugar and spice
    I guess it makes me feel kind of nice
    I write a letter to myself
    Oh, write another letter to myself
    I write another letter to myself
    Oh, write another letter to myself
    When is a home when you're all alone
    It seems so full
    It seems so full
    And yet so empty
    Oh, I get my coat
    Leave you a note and go to the places
    Where we used to be
    I pretend you are there
    Order dinner for two
    Your presence is all in the air
    (repeat)

    I write a letter to myself, oh, write another letter to myself

    Hooray For Hazel
    Composer(s): Tommy Roe
    Performer(s): Tommy Roe



    Hooray for Hazel, she put me down
    Hooray for Hazel, she made me her clown
    Hooray for Hazel, she's up to her tricks
    Hooray for Hazel, she's gettin' her kicks

    Hazel's been in love with many a guy
    She tells them that she loves 'em and then says goodbye
    Hooray for Hazel, I'm now on her list
    I'm just another fool that couldn't resist
    (repeat chorus)

    Hazel never feels any pity or shame
    A broken heart is just a part of her evil game
    Hooray for Hazel, she did it again
    I'll join the ranks of broken hearts that she put me in
    (repeat chorus)

    Hazel only does things she wants to do
    She's selfish and spoiled and she knows that she's cute
    Hooray for Hazel, she still gets her way
    But there's a time a-comin' we'll be able to say

    Hooray for Hazel, there's tears in her eyes
    Hooray for Hazel, she know how to cry
    Hooray for Hazel, she's meek as a dove
    Hooray for Hazel, she's beggin' for love
    Hooray for Hazel, there's tears in her eyes
    Hooray for Hazel, she know how to cry

    A Letter From Betty
    Composer(s): B. Feldman - J. Goldstein - Gottehrer
    Performer(s): Bobby Vee



    I got a letter from the mailman yesterday
    It came from Betty and was postmarked far away
    I felt so good until I looked inside
    I read that letter and I cried

    he said, dear, Bobby
    Just a line to say hello
    We've been such good friends
    You should be the first to know

    I fell in love
    My dreams have all come true
    And, Bobby, he's so much like you

    He swept me off my feet
    I'd never thought I'd meet
    Someone else who'd be so good to me

    I know someday you'll find
    Someone to love you true
    You'll fall in love and then
    You'll feel just like I do

    So long for now
    Write me soon, goodbye
    I read that letter and I cried

    I love her so
    But now she'll never know
    My golden chance has passed me by

    I waited much too long
    Now he's come along
    This letter from Betty means goodbye

    Whoa, oh, oh, oh
    This letter from Betty means goodbye
    Whoa, oh, oh, oh
    This letter from Betty means goodbye

    Hooray For Captain Spaulding
    Composer(s): Bert Kalmar; Harry Ruby
    Performer(s): Groucho Marx, Zeppo Marx,
    Margaret Dumont & Chorus



    (All)
    At last we are to meet him
    The famous Captain Spaulding
    From climates hot and scalding
    The Captain has arrived

    Most heartily we'll greet him
    With plain and fancy cheering
    Until he's hard of hearing
    The Captain has arrived
    At last - The Captain has arrived

    (Hives)
    Mr. Horatio W. Jamison, Field Secretary to Captain Spaulding

    (Jamison)
    I represent the Captain who insists on my informing you of these conditions under which he camps here
    In one thing he is very strict, he wants his women young and picked and as for men
    he won't have any tramps here

    (All)
    As for men he won't have any tramps here
    There must be no tramps

    (Jamison)
    The men must all be very old
    The women warm, the champagne cold
    It's under these conditions that he camps here

    (Voice off Screen)
    I'm announcing Captain Jeffery Spaulding

    (All)
    He's announcing Captain Jeffery Spaulding

    Oh dear, he is coming
    At last he's here

    (Spaulding)
    Hello, I must be going
    I cannot stay, I came to say, I must be going
    I'm glad I came, but just the same I must be going
    La La

    (Mrs. Rittenhouse)
    For my sake you must stay
    If you should go away
    You'd spoil this party I am throwing

    (Spaulding)
    I'll stay a week or two
    I'll stay the summer thru
    But I am telling you
    I must be going

    (All)
    Before you go
    Will you oblige us
    And tell us of your deeds so glowing?

    (Spaulding)
    I'll do anything you say
    In fact I'll even stay!

    (All)
    Good!

    (Spaulding)
    But I must be going

    (Jamison)
    There's something that I'd like to say
    That he's too modest to relay
    The Captain is a moral man
    Sometimes he finds it trying

    (Spaulding)
    This fact I emphasize with stress
    I never take a drink unless - Somebody's buying

    (All)
    The Captain is a very moral man

    (Jamison)
    If he hears anything obscene
    He'll naturally repel it

    (Spaulding)
    I hate a dirty joke I do
    Unless it's told by someone who
    Knows how to tell it

    (All)
    The Captain is a very moral man
    Hooray for Captain Spaulding
    The African explorer

    (Spaulding)
    Did someone call me Shnorrer?

    (All)
    Hooray, Hooray, Hooray

    (Jamison)
    He went into the jungle where all the monkeys throw nuts

    (Spaulding)
    If I stay here I'll go nuts

    (All)
    Hooray, Hooray, Hooray
    He put all his reliance
    In courage and defiance
    And risked his life for science

    (Spaulding)
    Hey, hey

    (Mrs. Rittenhouse)
    You are the only white man to cover every acre

    (Spaulding)
    I think I'll try and make her

    (All)
    Hooray, Hooray, Hooray
    He put all his reliance
    In courage and defiance
    And risked his life for science

    (Spaulding)
    Hey, hey

    (All)
    Hooray for Captain Spaulding
    The African explorer
    He brought his name undying fame
    And that is why we say
    Hooray, Hooray, Hooray

    (Spaulding attempts to speak)
    My friends, I am highly gratified at this magnificent display of effusion and I want you to know.........

    (All)
    Hooray for Captain Spaulding
    The African explorer
    He brought his name undying fame
    And that is why we say

    À L'enseigne De La Fille Sans Coeur
    Composer(s): Jean Villard
    Performer(s): Edith Piaf; Barbara



    Le ciel est bleu, le vent du large
    Creuse la mer bien joliment
    Vers le port, montant à la charge
    Galopent seize escadrons blancs
    C'est un port tout au bord du monde
    Dont les rues s'ouvrent sur l'infini
    Mais de là, comme la terre est ronde
    On ne voit pas les États-Unis

    Tout le monde s'en fout, 'y a du bonheur
    'y a un bar chez Rita la blonde
    Tout le monde s'en fout, 'y a du bonheur
    À l'enseigne de la Fille Sans Cœur!
    L'accordéon joue en majeur
    Les refrains de ce vaste monde
    'y a la belle blonde
    Cette rose en fleur
    À l'enseigne de la Fille Sans Cœur

    Dans ce petit bar, c'est là qu'elle règne
    On voit flamber sa toison d'or
    Sa bouche est comme un fruit qui saigne
    Mais on dit que son cœur est mort
    Pourtant les gars sont là, tout drôles
    Les p'tits, les durs, les malabars
    Qui entrent en roulant des épaules
    'y en a qui sont venus d'Dakar

    'y en a d'Anvers, 'y en a d'Honfleur
    Bourlinguant parfois jusqu'aux pôles
    Ils la regardent, c'est tout leur bonheur
    Mais pas un ne connaît ses faveurs
    L'accordéon joue en majeur
    Tous les airs: les tristes, les drôles...
    'y a des gars qui jouent leur bonheur
    À l'enseigne de la Fille Sans Cœur

    Le patron connaissait la musique
    Il aimait le son des écus
    Il disait à sa fille unique
    "Fuis l'amour, c'est du temps perdu!"
    Mais un soir, la mer faisait rage...
    On vit entrer un étranger
    Aux beaux yeux d'azur sans nuages
    C'est alors que tout a changé...

    Il a regardé la fille sans cœur
    Elle était comme un ciel d'orage
    Quelqu'un a fait: "'y a un malheur"
    On entendait battre les cœurs
    L'accordéon joue en mineur
    Un refrain dans le vent sauvage
    'y a une fille, le visage en pleurs
    À l'enseigne de la Fille Sans Cœur

    Il a dit: "C'est toi, ma divine!"
    Elle répondit: "Je suis à toi..."
    Il l'a serrée sur sa poitrine
    Elle a pleuré entre ses bras
    Les autres alors, mélancoliques
    Sont partis avec un soupir...
    Le vent chantait sur l'Atlantique
    Pour ce cœur qui venait de s'ouvrir

    Ils ont filé vers leur grand bonheur
    Le patron dut fermer boutique
    On l'a vu boire toutes ses liqueurs
    À l'enseigne de la Fille Sans Cœur
    Oui, mais l'État, cet accapareur
    Qu'a toujours le sens du comique
    A mis le bureau du Percepteur
    À l'enseigne de la Fille Sans Cœur...

    A Lei
    Performer(s): Anna Oxa



    A lei che sa capirti
    come sei
    a lei che non tradì
    a lei che dice si
    quando vuoi
    a lei che spazza via
    la tua malinconia
    per me
    facendoti l'amore
    togliendoti il bicchiere
    Lo so

    Tu con lei vola più su
    vola in alto come sai tu
    vecchie cose dentro di me
    l'ombra di un uomo che assomiglia a te

    Lei che prende lei che da
    lei che vince lei che ha
    lei che ride lei che c'e'
    tutte le volte che volevi me

    A lei, la tua, la sola grande idea
    a lei che aggiusta il cuore
    a lei che ti fa dire
    quel che vuoi
    a lei che mi sorride
    per strada se mi vede
    Ma si!

    A lei che a luce spente
    confondi nella mente
    con me
    dietro lei cammini tu
    senza lei non vivi più
    dillo a lei a lei che non sa
    com'eri prima di incontrare lei

    Lei che sogna lei che da
    lei che viene lei che non va
    lei che vive lei che c'e'
    tutte le volte che cercavi me

    Hooked On You
    Composer(s): Joe Malloy; David Sanchez
    Performer(s): Sweet Sensation



    I can't explain what I'm going through
    Wish I could find the right words to say
    Losing control and it's over you
    Nobody else could make me feel this way
    Could it just be that I'm curious
    And I want to make you play my game
    But something tells me that it's serious
    Because I go insane when I hear your name

    I'm hooked on you
    I'm hooked on you, what can I do
    It's over you

    I try to hide it but I know it's true
    My body trembles when I look in your eyes
    I'm so turned on, I don't know what to do
    It seems a touch can make my tempature rise
    Could it just be that I'm curious
    And I want to make you play my game
    But something tells me that it's serious
    Because I go insane when I hear your name

    I'm hooked on you
    I'm hooked on you, you make me feel so good, what can I do
    It's over you
    I'm hooked on you
    I'm needing you baby
    I'm hooked on you, I'm needing you baby, what can I do
    Won't you say you love me

    What can I do, it's over you

    Days go warm, and nights go cold
    You are the one I need to hold
    Try decide, this love is made
    Loving you can set me free
    I'm hooked on you can't you see
    Hearts on fire
    Higher, higher
    Nobody else can make me feel the way that you do

    Could it be that this time love has taken all control
    You're the one who's touch I need, the one I need to hold
    Could it be that this time love has taken all control
    I'm hooked on you, you're the one I need to hold
    What can I do, it's over you

    A Legal Matter
    Composer(s): Pete Townshend
    First release by: The Who - 1965
    Covered by multiple other artists



    I told you why I changed my mind
    I got bored by playing with time
    I know you thought you had me nailed
    But I've freed my head from your garden rails

    Now it's a legal matter, baby
    You got me on the run
    It's a legal matter, baby
    A legal matter from now on

    My mind's lost in a household fog
    Wedding gowns and catalogues
    Kitchen furnishings and houses
    Maternity clothes and baby's trousers

    Now it's a legal matter, baby
    Marrying is no fun
    It's a legal matter, baby
    A legal matter from now on

    I told you why I changed my mind
    I got bored by playing with time
    I know you thought you had me nailed
    Well, I've freed my head from your garden rails

    Now it's a legal matter, baby
    You got me on the run
    It's a legal matter, baby
    A legal matter from now on

    You ain't the first and you ain't the last
    I gain and lose my women fast
    I never want to make them cry
    I just get bored, don't ask me why

    Just want to keep doing all the dirty little things I do
    And not work all day in an office just to bring my money back to you
    Sorry, baby

    Hooked On The Memory Of You
    Composer(s): Neil Diamond
    Performer(s): Neil Diamond



    Stay with me, here with me
    I want you near with me
    I'm a man that's hooked on the mem'ry of you and I
    Who knows why?
    I only know that I'm sure I am hooked on the mem'ry of you

    Time, time standing still
    I know it's you
    I always will need you to lay with me; lie with me
    Spend your desire with me if you can
    I'm hooked on the mem'ry of you and I
    Who knows why?
    I guess I wanted for you to be hooked on the mem'ry of me

    Time, time standing still
    I know it's you
    I always will want you to be here wit me
    I want you to stay right here with me
    I need you to love with me; laugh with me
    Forgive the past with me
    I know you can
    I'm hooked on the mem'ry of you and I
    Who knows why?
    Guess I just wanted for you to be hooked on the mem'ry of me

    Oh, you know that it's true
    Not a thing I can do
    I'm hooked on the mem'ry of you

    A Las Piedras De Belen
    Performer(s): Fito Páez



    Me dijeron que me calle
    que no hay mucha más que ver
    me dijeron que me vaya
    que me deje de joder
    Me metieron en un rollo
    que al final no se muy bien como se sale
    me pregunto en que pensaban
    cuando estaban por coger
    Que te escupan en la cara
    que te duela hoy más que ayer
    que te chupen en la cana
    que te enseñen a perder
    ya no quiero levantarme paranoico
    en el medio de la noche
    Ya no quiero que me agarren esta vez
    A la luz de las estrellas
    A las piedras de Belén
    A las tetas de Gioconda
    A los múltiplos de tres
    Me dirijo hacia ese punto donde hay algo
    y a la vez no existe nada
    Me pregunto que otra cosa puedo hacer

    I can't stop this feelin' deep inside of me
    Girl, you just don't realize what you do to me

    You let me know everything's all right

    I-I-I, I'm hooked on a feelin'
    High on believin' that you're in love with me

    Lips are sweet as candy, the taste stays on my mind
    Girl, you keep me thirsty for another cup of wine
    I got it bad for you, girl but I don't need a cure
    I'll just stay addicted and hope I can endure

    All the good love when we're all alone
    Keep it up, girl, yeah ya turn me on

    I-I-I, I'm hooked on a feelin'
    High on believin' that you're in love with me

    A Lady Loves
    Composer(s): Josef Myrow - Mack Gordon
    Performer(s): Debbie Reynolds
    and multiple other artists



    A lady loves expensive clothes
    and pretty jewels and furs and french chapeaus
    (In other words, a lady is materialistic)
    she loves her lingerie in black
    it suits her zodiac
    (Stupid enough to believe in astrology
    And colour coordinate to it, too)

    Loves a penthouse where she'll be content to stay (alone, looks like)
    finds little gifts on her breakfast tray (or money on the dresser)
    but now and then pack and sail away
    for a simple Riveria holiday (one way trip)

    A lady loves beaucoup l'amour
    but first of all she loves to be secure (Jails are secure)
    and she adores the subtle phrase
    that it's the man who pays (A lady's cheap, too)

    Yet there is one vital thought she will place above
    all the things I mention of
    that most of all a lady loves to love
    (Thank God
    For love, a woman will give up all of the above expensive furs, penthouse, etc.)

    Male chorus:
    A lady loves her phobias
    She has complexities she will insist
    (The first serious thing mentioned in this song)

    Lady:
    It gives her things to talk about with her psychiatrist
    (at $100 an hour, too- and guess who pays?
    See above)

    Male Chorus:
    Incidentally when she drops her glove
    Gentlemen know what she's thinking of
    (Yes: "Damn, I dropped my glove!)

    Lady:
    That most of all a lady loves to love

    Male Chorus:
    And what is more a lady loves to live

    Lady:
    And what is more lady lives to love

    Hoogtevrees In Babylon
    Performer(s): Boudewijn de Groot



    ze zeiden: bouw een toren
    tot aan de hemelpoort
    laat niemand ervan horen
    en spreek daarbij geen woord
    de noten waren mijn stenen
    de melodie was mijn cement
    je bouwt tenslotte met datgene
    waarmee je gezegend bent

    priesters die me zagen
    zegenden mijn werk
    ik had niets te klagen
    ze baden voor me in hun kerk
    ik schreef in kalk: weet iemand
    tot hoever ik moet gaan
    ze zeiden: dat weet niemand
    't is ergens bovenaan

    ik zweeg in alle talen
    en bouwde immer voort
    zou ik het kunnen halen
    tot aan de hemelpoort?

    Paul Simon was degene
    die vroeg waar ik mee bezig was
    hij gaf me een paar stenen
    en ging liggen in het gras
    hij zei: wordt dit de hoogste toren
    door mensenhand gemaakt
    dan weet je van tevoren
    dat je wordt afgekraakt

    hooggegrepen zinnen
    theatrale melodie
    het lijkt heel wat daarbinnen
    maar het blijkt een parodie
    achttien trage kraaien
    vlogen cirkels boven ons hoofd
    je moet de leugen niet verdraaien
    of je wordt niet meer geloofd

    ik zweeg in alle talen
    en bouwde immer voort
    zou ik het kunnen halen
    tot aan de hemelpoort?

    mijn moeder schuifelde nader
    ik heb ervan gehoord
    je wilt naar God de Vader
    achter de hemelpoort
    ik hoop dat het niet waar is
    zoiets is te profaan
    maar laat me weten als het klaar is
    want alleen laat ik je niet gaan

    ik metselde mijn muren
    duizend stenen in het rond
    het kon niet lang meer duren
    tot ik in de wolken stond
    mijn moeder kon ik niet meer horen
    Paul Simon schudde 't hoofd
    ik dacht: je moet je niet laten storen
    door wie niet in je gelooft

    ik zweeg in alle talen
    en bouwde immer voort
    zou ik het kunnen halen
    tot aan de hemelpoort?

    de nacht begon te vallen
    met sterren om me heen
    de toren werd al smaller
    want ik had te weinig steen
    ik voelde dat ik niet verder kon
    op dit godverlaten uur
    beneden me lag Babylon
    als glanzend zacht glazuur

    ik besloot mijn werk te staken
    het werd een hopeloos karwei
    het had met godsvrucht iets te maken
    maar er kwam nog wat anders bij
    de toren hoefde niet vanaf de grond
    tot de hemelpoort te reiken
    maar ik wilde wel wanneer ik boven stond
    nog naar beneden durven kijken

    ik schreeuwde: ik ga 't niet halen
    maar ik werd niet gehoord
    men zweeg in alle talen
    beneden in het Land van Baäl
    en achter de hemelpoort

    Adieu lézards adieu corbeaux
    Bonsoir les hommes et vous les veaux
    Tout est à recommencer
    Quand vous gueulez
    Comme des damnés

    Je sais bien que tout s'effondre
    Chaque jour et chaque nuit
    Que je n'ai plus rien à attendre
    Et que tout ce qui s'ensuit
    C'est de savoir que je suis dupe

    Les soirs tombent comme les années
    Je ne sais même plus les compter
    Ce n'est plus jamais à prendre
    Mais pour toujours tout laisser
    Rien ne peut recommencer

    Adieu vantard adieu salaud
    Bonsoir crétin et toi le veau
    C'est moi qui ai commencé
    Quand je gueulais
    Comme un damné

    Hoodoo Snake Doctor Blues
    Composer(s): Johnny Shines
    Performer(s): Johnny Shines



    I'm going surprise my baby, and I tipped up to her door
    I's going surprise my baby, and I tipped up to her door
    I could hear nothing but best friend crying
    and slats falling all on the floor

    I thought my baby was sick when I heard a grunting sound
    I thought my baby was sick when I heard a grunting sound
    Well, I peeped through my window
    I thought Doc was trying to hold her down

    I know sick people need quietness, so I didn't dare open up my trap
    I know sick people need quietness, so I didn't dare open up my trap
    I know Doc was a hoodoo man
    when I saw a huge snake laying in her lap

    Performer(s): Michel Sardou
    and multiple other artists



    À la volonté du peuple
    Et à la santé du progrès
    Remplis ton cœur d'un vin rebelle
    Et à demain, ami fidèle
    Nous voulons faire la lumière
    Malgré le masque de la nuit
    Pour illuminer notre terre
    Et changer la vie
    Il faut gagner à la guerre
    Notre sillon à labourer
    Déblayer la misère
    Pour les blonds épis de la paix
    Qui danseront de joie
    Au grand vent de la liberté
    À la volonté du peuple
    Et à la santé du progrès
    Remplis ton cœur d'un vin rebelle
    Et à demain, ami fidèle
    Nous voulons faire la lumière
    Malgré le masque de la nuit
    Pour illuminer notre terre
    Et changer la vie
    À la volonté du peuple
    Je fais don de ma volonté
    S'il faut mourir pour elle
    Moi je veux être le premier
    Le premier nom gravé
    Au marbre du monument d'espoir
    À la volonté du peuple
    Et à la santé du progrès
    Remplis ton cœur d'un vin rebelle
    Et à demain, ami fidèle
    Nous voulons faire la lumière
    Malgré le masque de la nuit
    Pour illuminer notre terre
    Et changer la vie
