==== Lyrics ====
===== French =====
:Un petit garçon, bien sage,
:Aurait bien voulu savoir,
:Comme tout enfant de son âge
:Comment rencontrer la fée.
:Celle des livres d'images
:Qui punit tous les méchants.
:Ou bien la fée des voyages
:Qui protège les pauvres gens.
:Pourvu qu'il rencontre une fée,
:Il lui dirait:
:"Madame, pouvez-vous m'aider
:A retrouver et ramener mon p'tit chat?"	
===== English translation =====
:A very wise little boy
:Would have really liked to know
:As would all children his age
:How to meet a fairy.
:The one from picture books,
:Who punishes all the evildoers,
:Or even the fairy of travels,
:Who protects the poor people.
:If he were to meet a fairy,
:He'd say to her:
:"Ma'am, could you help me
:[To] find and bring back my little cat?"
