This evening, and almost accidently, Bambi discovered Mr. Mario Pelchat’s beautiful French-Canadian song entitled “Croire” [Believe], which is all about what is essential in our lives. Of course, beliefs are a personal matter. We all believe in something, in someone. Some of us may be disconnected from our beliefs yet we can re-embrace them “to live again”, as the song goes. This brief musical post features this song, along with a quick English translation of its lyrics. Thanks to Mr. Google Translate for his assistance. As for Mr. Pelchat, may he keep singing and inspiring us.
“Believe in the beauty of the world
In the goodness of men
Believe in the deep truth
And believe that everything is forgiven
Believe in the summer sun
To the path that must be followed
Knowing that time heals us
And believe in humanity
Oh believe in lost love
In dreams, in a child
May this hope be from the fall of heaven
Or spring
Believe it for just a moment
It’s still living
To believe is to live again
To believe is to live again
Believe in guitar chords
With melodies that make you laugh
Say that the end
Is just a departure
For paths to the future
Believe in the earth beneath our feet
Raise a glass to friendship
Hope for just one day
That we can love each other
Without breaking
Oh believe in lost love
In dreams, in a child
May this hope be from the fall of heaven
Or spring
Believe it for just a moment
It’s still living
To believe is to live again
To believe is to live again
To survive my tears
I believed in other lives elsewhere
When the night slows down my wounds
A better world
A better world
Oh believe in lost love
In dreams, in a child
May this hope be from the fall of heaven
Or spring
Believe it for just a moment
It’s still living
To believe is to live again
To believe is to live again
To believe is to live again
To believe is to live again“.
