Céline Dion Benjamin translation
Quand le soleil à travers
When the sun across
La forêt
The forest
Se change en or
Changes into gold
Dans vos bras c'est beau
In your arms it's beautiful
Un garçon qui s'endort
A boy that fell asleep
Il avait l'air
He looked like
D'un enfant
A child
Sans parents
Without parents
Qui cherche encore
Who's trying to know
Si sa route
If his route
Ira vers le sud ou le nord
Go towards south or north
Benjamin
Benjamin
C'est son nom
It's his name
Il ressemble à la couleur
He looks like the colour
De ma chanson
Of my song
Un peu triste, cyclamen
A bit sad, cyclamen (wild violet flower in the Alps)
Pourtant, pourtant
However, however
C'est lui que j'aime
It's him that I love
Que j'aime
That I love
Benjamin
Benjamin
Des beaux jours
From the beautiful days
O l'amour ne s'appelait pas encore l'amour
Where love wasn't called love yet
Benjamin mon vieil ami
Benjamin, my old friend
Du temps, du temps où j'apprenais la vie
From the time, from the time when I was learning life
Je l'aime
I love him
Quant le soleil
When the sun
A qui
Has left
La forêt
The forest
J'ai pris sa main
I took his hand
Un matin devant la croise des chemins
A morning facing the cross roads
En se jurant
While pledging
Tendrement
Tenderly
De s'aimer
To love each other
Jusqu la mort
Till the death
Il a pris le sud et moi j'ai pris le nord
He went south and I went north
Benjamin

C'est son nom
