Mon pays et Paris

On dit qu'au-delà des mers
Là-bas sous le ciel clair
Il existe une cité
Au séjour enchanté
Et sous les grands arbres noirs
Chaque soir
Vers elle s'en va tout mon espoir
J'ai deux amours
Mon pays et Paris
Par eux toujours
Mon coeur est ravi
Ma savane est belle
Mais à quoi bon le nier
Ce qui m'ensorcelle
C'est Paris, Paris tout entier
Le voir un jour
C'est mon rêve joli
J'ai deux amours
Mon pays et Paris
Quand sur la rive parfois
Au lointain j'aperçois
Un paquebot qui s'en va
Vers lui je tends les bras
Et le coeur battant d'émoi
À mi-voix
Doucement je dis "emporte-moi!"
J'ai deux amours
Ton pays et Paris
Par eux toujours
Ton coeur est ravi
Ta savane est belle
Mais à quoi bon le nier
Ce qui m'ensorcelle
C'est Paris, Paris tout entier
Le voir un jour
C'est mon rêve joli
J'ai deux amours
Mon pays et Paris
