Deux branches de tilleul entrent par la fenêtre
Le ciel cligne des yeux entre les feuilles vertes
Ce qu'on est bien
Quatre papillons blancs dansent la passacaille
Un lézard se hasarde au-delà des rocailles
Ce qu'on est bien
Dans ce pays de vent de genêts de bruyères
Dans ce pays brûlant de tendresse et colère
Ce qu'on est bien
Seul le bruit du torrent déchire le silence
Et tu dis mon amour nous avons trop de chance
Dans un rai de soleil la fumée qui pirouette
Au bout de tes longs doigts meurt une cigarette
Ce qu'on est bien
Et moi le saltimbanque et moi qui fais des signes
A tes bras à ta bouche à tes jambes ma vigne
Ce qu'on est bien
Dans ce pays si riche dans ce pays si pauvre
Qu'on apprend chaque jour à devenir plus nôtre
Ce qu'on est bien
Arbre parmi les arbres de la forêt qui vibre
Et tu dis mon amour nous sommes seuls et libres
Jean Ferrat, nato Jean Tenenbaum (1930-2010), è stato uno dei cantautori francesi più amati e influenti del XX secolo. Nato a Lione da una famiglia ebrea, la sua musica ha sempre riflettuto un profondo impegno sociale e politico. Dopo aver iniziato come musicista di jazz, Ferrat si è dedicato alla canzone d'autore negli anni '60, trovando successo con brani come "La Montagne" e "Auprès de mon arbre".
