Fairies with blue wings live in houses
Shaped like drops of water at the foot of ancient trees
We can see them when they go to bed
And if you close your eyes, you can see them dance
The Golden Tree that the elves protect
Gathering leaves to heal the forest
When the curious approach, spell!
It turns into a black tree for eternity
The Pond of the Mirror, haunt of the seven fairies
Every night under the silver moon
Admire their reflections together
The Valley of No Return keeps its secrets
When love is there in the tender atmosphere
At the Fountain of Barenton where lovers come
Viviane and Merlin are suddenly surprised
By a loving glance and a feverish kiss
A sword in a rock, a round table
Of valiant knights who inhabit our minds
And King Arthur's legend floods
The Holy Grail that dazzles us
Fairies, elves, unicorns, and shadows
They make Brocéliande a magical forest
The myths and legends that our paths confuse
Give us a glimpse of fairytale dreams
Merlin's spirit sitting on his grave
Telling us tales of dragon knights
If you want to believe, if you want to dream
There's a legend in every forest.
