Formidable ! J'entends le vent sur la mer.
Formidable ! Je vois la pluie les éclairs.
Formidable ! Je sens bientôt qu'il va faire,
Qu'il va faire un orage formidable.
Formidable ! J'ai vu s'enfuir les oiseaux
Formidable ! Et, sur la crête des eaux,
Formidable! J'ai vu danser les bateaux,
Coques de noix folles dans la rade.
Camarades fermez vos hublots !
Et puis et puis dans mon cœur,
La pluie a joué de bonne heure.
Dans ma petite enfance,
Avec amour,
J'écoutais son tambour.
Quelle chance et quelle chanson.
La pluie qui tombe sans raison
N'ennuie que l'horizon
Car, pour moi, elle est un frisson.
Formidable ! Un arbre déraciné.
Formidable ! On se croirait au ciné...
Matographe où l'on voit tant de belles choses,
Tant de trucs, de métamorphoses,
Quand une rose est assassinée.
Formidable ! Le jour déchire la nuit.
Formidable.' Le grand soleil m'éblouit.
Formidable ! Je sens qu'il fait aujourd'hui,
Qu'il va faire une journée formidable.
Formidable ! Le port de San Francisco
Formidable ! bourdonne de cris et d'échos.
Formidable ! J'entends un cocorico.
C'est mon cœur qui chante, aimable,
La chanson de l'air et de l'eau,
Et puis et puis, sur les quais,
La pluie n'a pas compliqué
La vie qui rigole
Et qui se mire dans les mares des rigoles.
Quel temps pour les petits poissons.
Quel temps pour les grands garçons.
Quel temps pour les tendrons.
Mesdemoiselles nous vous attendrons,
Formidable ! pour faire un tour sur la mer,
Formidable ! après la pluie les éclairs,
Formidable ! après la nuit de l'hiver,
C'est l'amour, la joie de vivre
Qui m'enivrent sous le soleil clair
Et je répète sous le soleil clair :
Formidable ! Formidable ! Formidable !
Charles Trenet (Louis Charles Auguste Claude Trenet), born May 18, 1913, in Narbonne and died February 19, 2001, in Créteil, was a highly successful French singer-songwriter. His career began in the 1930s and reached its peak between the late 1930s and the mid-1950s, although it continued until the 1990s. Trenet distinguished himself by writing most of his songs, refusing to record songs composed by other artists during a period when it was rare for singers to write their own material. Among his most famous successes are "La Mer", "Boum!" and "Y'a d'la joie". Trenet helped define the sound of French chanson, influencing generations of artists.
