This song is a poem by the French poet Jacques Prévert. I heard it sang by Yves Montand when I was a child. I find its simplicity moving. Enjoy!


Here's a translation of it (by me):

What day are we?
We are every day my friend
We are all the life my love

We are in love and we are alive
We are alive and we are in love

And we don't know what life is
And we don't know what daytime is
And we don't know what love is
