[Verse 1]
Quand le soleil
A travers
La foret
Se change en or
Dans vos bras c'est beau
Un garcon qui s'endort
Il avait l'air
D'un enfant
Sans parents
Qui cherche encore
Si sa route
Ira vers le sud ou le nord

[Chorus]
Benjamin
C'est son nom
Il ressemble a la couleur
De ma chanson
Un peu triste, cyclamen
Pourtant, pourtant
C'est lui que j'aime
Que j'aime
Benjamin
Des beaux jours
Ou l'amour ne s'app'lait pas encore l'amour
Benjamin mon vieil ami
Du temps, du temps ou j'apprenais la vie
Je l'aime

[Verse 2]
Quant le soleil
A quitte
La foret
J'ai pris sa main
Un matin devant la croisee des chemins
En se jurant
Tendrement
De s'aimer
Jusqu'a la mort
Il a pris le Sud et moi j'ai pris le Nord

[Chorus]

[Outro]
Benjamin, je l'aime
