Three Bells (Les Trois Cloches) by Edith Piaf


English Words:

 

There's a village hidden deep in the valley

 

Among the pine trees and forlorn

 

And there on a sunny morning

 

Lil' Jimmy Brown was born

 

So his parents brought him to the chapel

 

When he was only one day old

 

And the priest blessed the little fellow

 

Welcomed him into the fold

 

All the chapel bells were ringing

 

In the little valley town

 

And the song that they were singing

 

Was for baby Jimmy Brown

 

There's a village hidden deep in the valley

 

Beneath the mountains high above

 

And there, twenty years thereafter

 

Jimmy Brown was to meet his love

 

Many friends were gathered in the chapel

 

And many tears of joy were shed

 

In June on a Sunday morning

 

When Jimmy Brown and his bride were wed

 

All the chapel bells were ringing

 

't was a great day in his life

All the songs that they were singing

 

Were for Jimmy and his wife

 

From the village hidden deap in the valley

 

One rainy morning dark and grey

 

A soul wound it's way to Heaven

 

Jimmy Brown had passed away

 

Silent people gathered in the chapel

 

To say farewell to their old friend

 

Whose life had been like a flower

 

Budding, blooming 'till the end

 

Just a lonely bell was ringing

 

In the little valley town

 

't was farewell that it was singing

 

To our good old Jimmy Brown

 

And the little congregation

 

Prayed for guidance from above

 

"Lead us not into temptation"

 

"Make his soul find a salvation"

 

"Of thy great eternal love"Les mots français

 

Village au fond de la vallée

Comme égaré, presqu'ignoré

Voici qu'en la nuit étoilée

Un nouveau-né nous est donné

Jean-François Nicot qu'il se nomme

Il est joufflu, tendre et rosé

À l'église, beau petit homme,

Demain tu sera baptisé...

 

Une cloche sonne, sonne

Sa voix d'écho en écho

Dit au monde qui s'étonne:

"C'est pour Jean-François Nicot"

C'est pour accueillir une âme

Une fleur qui s'ouvre au jour

A peine, à peine une flamme

Encore faible qui réclame

Protection, tendresse, amour... Village au fond de la vallée

Loin des chemins, loin des humains

Voici qu'après dix-neuf années

Coeur en émoi, le Jean-François

Prend pour femme la douce Élise

Blanche comme fleur de pommier

Devant Dieu, dans la vieille église

Ce jour il se sont mariés...

Toutes les cloches sonnent, sonnent

Leurs voix d'écho en écho

Merveilleusement couronnent

La noce à François Nicot

"Un seul coeur, une seule âme"

Dit le prêtre, "et pour toujours"

"Soyez une pure flamme"

"Qui s'élève et qui proclame"

"La grandeur de votre amour." Village au fond de la vallée

Des jours, des nuits, le temps a fui

Voici qu'en la nuit étoilée

Un coeur s'endort, François est mort...

Car toute chair est comme l'herbe

Elle est comme la fleur des champs

Épis, fruits mûrs, bouquets et gerbes,

Hélas vont en se desséchant...

 

Une cloche sonne, sonne

Elle chante dans la mort

Obsédante et monotone

Elle redit aux vivants:

"Ne tremblez pas coeurs fidèles"

"Dieu vous fera signe un jour"

"Vous trouverez sous son aile"

"Avec la Vie Éternelle"

"L'éternitéde l'amour
