about

This is the BILINGUAL version of CANADA. The song is meant to pay tribute to our beautiful country. It's was written in the spirit of the Canada Day Celebrations. For a full description, please refer to the French and English versions / single tracks / of the song.

Although initially written in French and part of "Ça coûte cher aller dans l'sud album", it became gradually interesting to consider a translation and why not? a bilingual version as a symbol of inclusion.

Cette version bilingue a pour but d’honorer notre beau pays. Elle fut écrite dans l’esprit des Célébrations de la fête du Canada. Pour une description complete, s.v.p. vous référer aux versions françaises et anglaises de la chanson.

Cette chanson fut initialement écrite en versions française et figure sur le EP "Ça coûte cher aller dans l'sud”. Eventuellement, les versions anglaises et bilingues ont suivirent la cadence inclusive des deux langues.

lyrics

My country it is no tropics
But in the sky
It’s like a perfect tweet of magic
Seasons are always short and sweet
We can’t miss a beat
While dancing with the sky

Mon pays, ç’est l’automne en pleurs quand
Les vents soufflent
Des dentelles de couleurs tout partout
Pour déposer sous nos pieds un tapis douillet
Pour les temps plus frais

The sky wants you to know
We have it good in Canada
Our colours spread the words
It’s no better elsewhere
Between two shovel strokes
Nothing’s cuter than snow
It is a chill of perfection
Swirling angels on a white bed of snow
A million flakes of lace
Cool e-mails from the sky
Writing all about Canada

Mon pays c’est l’hiver en neige
Les enfants dessinent
Des pompons blancs tout partout
Les mitaines, le foulard, la tuque
En attendant les parfums du printemps

My country it’s summer in flowers
While our hearts
Release light butterflies
High in the sky
Gardens and love, adventure stories
A few mosquito bites
Flirting with the moonlight

Quand le ciel nous rappel
Qu’on est bien au Canada
C’est nos couleurs qui chantent
Que c’est pas mieux ailleurs
Même entre deux coups de pelle
Y’a pas plus beau q’la neige
C’est un frisson de perfection
Des anges sur un beau tapis blanc
Des flocons de dentelles
Des courriels du ciel
Qui nous parlent du Canada

Mon pays, c’est pas les tropiques
C’est tout blanc, c’est l’âme du ciel
Transporté par le vent
Pour tous ceux qui vivent ici, Yeah

Quand le ciel nous rappel
Qu’on est bien au Canada
C’est nos couleurs qui chantent
Que c’est pas mieux ailleurs
Between two shovel strokes
Nothing’s cuter than snow
It is a chill of perfection
Swirling angels on a white bed of snow
A million flakes of lace
Cool e-mails from the sky
Writing about (cheering about)
Canada

Scat….
