Madame la colline


MADAME LA COLLINE

Vous êtes jaune et desséchée
Pourquoi madame la Colline
Mes racines ont arraché
Je n'ai plus d'eau dans ma poitrine

Et l'eau s'enfuit, s'enfuit, s'enfuit
Dans les prairies, l'herbe était si belle
L'eau s'enfuit, s'enfuit, s'enfuit
J'entends taper le seau sur le fond du puits

Dans les dessous de mes fossés
L'ombre était douce et accueillante
Les animaux pour se soigner
Y trouvait des herbes et des plantes

Et l'eau s'enfuit, s'enfuit, s'enfuit
Dans les prairies, l'herbe était si belle
L'eau s'enfuit, s'enfuit, s'enfuit
J'entends taper le seau sur le fond du puits

Beau rossignol du bois joli
Si tu nous quittes pour toujours
Qui chantera pendant la nuit
Nos doux messages à nos amours

Et l'eau s'enfuit, s'enfuit, s'enfuit
Dans les prairies, l'herbe était si belle
L'eau s'enfuit, s'enfuit, s'enfuit
J'entends taper le seau sur le fond du puits

C'est notre histoire que nous gravions
Dans les sillons de nos cultures
Chaque champ portait par son nom
Témoignage de notre culture

Et l'eau s'enfuit, s'enfuit, s'enfuit
Dans les prairies, l'herbe était si belle
L'eau s'enfuit, s'enfuit, s'enfuit
J'entends taper le seau sur le fond du puits

Les noms et les mots, on les rase
Les champs reçoivent un numéro
Pour notre histoire et pour nos phrases
Le numéro c'est le zéro

Et l'eau s'enfuit, s'enfuit, s'enfuit
Dans les prairies, l'herbe était si belle
L'eau s'enfuit, s'enfuit, s'enfuit
J'entends taper le seau sur le fond du puits

Mais pourquoi tant d'acharnement
A vouloir que tout on arrache
Est-ce que c'est pour le rendement
Ou pour que personne ne s'y cache

Et l'eau s'enfuit, s'enfuit, s'enfuit
Dans les prairies, l'herbe était si belle
L'eau s'enfuit, s'enfuit, s'enfuit
J'entends taper le seau sur le fond du puits
