La mia piccola, piccola, piccola Italia
è un ricordo della mia patria Italiana
la mia piccola, piccola, piccola Italia
è un ritrovo che sarà sempre la mia casa
Elle ne figure pas sur les cartes du Québec
mais elle est bien là dans le cœur des poètes
si petite et si grande, les deux à la fois
si vaste et féconde, un royaume pour les rois
son décor, c'est son vieux marché Jean-Talon
son folklore, ses personnages et ses chansons
on s'y connaît tous comme dans un grand village
où chaque sourire, nous rappelle une image
La mia piccola, piccola, piccola Italia
è un ricordo della mia patria Italiana
la mia piccola, piccola, piccola Italia
è un ritrovo che sarà sempre la mia casa
Née au fond d'une faune tellement industrielle
qu'on y aperçoit ni montagne, ni mer
le seul relief qui y soit à perte de vue
c'est le chemin de fer au loin derrière les rues
là, on peut y voir tout l'horizon monter
jusqu'aux berges de la Méditerranée
ici, c'est grâce surtout à l'imaginaire
qu'on bâtit ses règles et ses propres repères
(Refrain)
Félix a le fleuve et son île d'Orléans
Vigneault a la mer et son vieux Natashquan
Desjardins, les forêts de l'Abitibi
et moi, j'ai le soleil de ma Petite Italie
On devrait redessiner la carte du Québec
on devrait l'ajouter aux dix autres régions
un coin du Québec qui ressemble à l'Italie
un paradis rempli par ses mille chansons
(Refrain)
