Le prisonnier de la Tour
S'est tué ce matin,
Grand-mère.
Nous n'irons pas à la messe demain.
Il s'est jeté de la Tour
En me tendant les mains,
Grand-mère.
Il m'a semblé que j'avais du chagrin.
Si le roi savait ça, Isabelle,
Isabelle, si le roi savait ça,
A la robe de dentelle,
Vous n'auriez plus jamais droit,
Isabelle, si le roi savait ça.
Le prisonnier de la Tour
Était mon seul ami,
Grand-mère.
Nous n'irons pas à la messe aujourd'hui.
Il était mon seul amour,
La raison de ma vie,
Grand-mère
Et ma jeunesse est éteinte avec lui.
Si le roi savait ça, Isabelle,
Isabelle, si le roi savait ça,
A la robe de dentelle,
Vous n'auriez plus jamais droit,
Isabelle, si le roi savait ça.
Le prisonnier de la Tour,
Chaque jour, m'attendait,
Grand-mère.
Nous n'irons plus à la messe, jamais.
C'est un péché que l'amour
Et le monde est mal fait,
Grand-mère.
On a tué mon amant que j'aimais.
Si le roi savait ça, Isabelle,
Isabelle, si le roi savait ça,
A la robe de dentelle,
Vous n'auriez plus jamais droit,
Isabelle, si le roi savait ça.
Le prisonnier de la Tour
N'aura pas de linceul
Et rien
Rien qu'un trou noir où s'engouffrent les feuilles,
Mais moi, j'irai chaque jour
Pleurer sous les tilleuls
Et rien,
Pas même le roi, n'empêchera mon deuil.
Si le roi savait ça, Isabelle,
Il ne pourrait que pleurer avec toi
Car il aimait une belle
Qui n'était pas pour un roi
Et la belle, Isabelle, c'était moi...
Édith Piaf, born Édith Giovanna Gassion (Paris, December 19, 1915 – Grasse, October 11, 1963), was a French singer of international fame. Known as "La Môme Piaf" or "The Little Sparrow", she dominated the French music scene between the 1930s and 1960s. Born in a poor district of Paris, her childhood was marked by poverty and the loss of her father. She began singing on the streets at the age of seven, earning the nickname "Little Sparrow" (piaf in French). Her powerful and versatile voice, capable of transitioning from harsh tones to sweet melodies, made her one of France's most beloved artists. Piaf became a symbol of resistance and rebellion against social injustices, anticipating the intellectual movement of the rive gauche with songs that reflected the anguish and despair of the time. Among her most famous songs are "La Vie en Rose", "Non, Rien de Rien", "Hymne à l'Amour" and "Milord". Her life was marked by personal tragedies, including car accidents, illnesses, and a suicide attempt. Despite the difficulties, Piaf continued to sing until the end, leaving an unforgettable musical legacy.
