Si Montmartre est moins jeune,
Si Montparnasse est triste,
Si les Champs-Élysées ne brillent plus la nuit,
Si, dans les bals musette, on n'voit plus de touristes,
Si, place de l'Opéra, on n'entend plus de bruit,
Si, Boul'vard Saint-Germain, il n'y a plus de douairières,
Si la fête à Neu-Neu n'vend plus de Berlingots,
Si la bourse n'est plus le centre des affaires,
Il nous reste pour nous un coin très Parigot :
Quartier latin, chez toi, rien n'a changé.
Quartier latin toujours aussi léger,
Quartier latin, pays de mes folles amours,
Quartier latin où j'ai connu mes meilleurs jours,
J'ai retrouvé ma chambre sous les toits
Dont je rêvais : j'étais heureux là-bas
Car je vivais amoureux, sans souci du lendemain,
Quartier latin, quartier latin !
Quand on quitt' sa province et qu'un jour on retrouve
Un Paris qui vivait à l'ombre des souv'nirs,
Quand on revoit la Sein', les Tuil'ries et le Louvre,
On sent au fond du cœur un frisson de plaisir.
Quand on r'voit le Chât'let où, pour vingt sous, mesdames,
On faisait tranquill'ment le tour du monde, assis,
Et la plac' Saint-Michel, le Boul'Mich', ô Paname,
Je suis à toi ce soir. Adieu tous mes soucis...
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.
