MAMAN
Tu es la saveur de mon pain,
Le dimanche de ma semaine ;
Tu es la ligne du destin
Que l’on peut lire dans ma main ;
Tu es ma joie, tu es ma peine,
Tu es ma chanson, ma couleur
Et dans la douceur de mes veines,
Le sang qui fait battre mon cœur.

MOM

You're the flavor of my bread,
The Sunday of my week;
You're the line of destiny
That one can read in my hand;
You are my joy, you're my pain,
You're my song, my color
And in the sweetness of my veins,
The blood that makes my heart beat.
