Chant de Christmas<\/a> \u00e9crit par Raymond Vinci, et dont la musique est l\u2019\u0153uvre d\u2019Henri Martinet, Petit Papa No\u00ebl a \u00e9t\u00e9 interpr\u00e9t\u00e9 pour la toute premi\u00e8re fois en 1946. C\u2019est Tino Rossi qui a eu l\u2019honneur de la chanter dans le film \u00ab\u00a0Destins\u00a0\u00bb, chanson qu\u2019il avait lui-m\u00eame choisi d\u2019interpr\u00e9ter.<\/p>\n

The story goes that Henri Martinet met Tino Rossi with the aim of asking him to sing a song in this film. However, nothing seemed to suit Tino Rossi. The Parisian impresario named Audiffred then suggested that Martinet sing his own composition, to which he strongly opposed. He explained this refusal by the bitter failure he had previously suffered when he sang it in a revue in Marseille. Intrigued, Tino Rossi then asked him to sing it, and immediately won over, he immediately agreed to perform it in the filming of the film.<\/p>\n

Although several artists have performed Petit Papa No\u00ebl, the best-known, and therefore most popular, version remains the one performed by Tino Rossi. He also holds the record for the best-selling single in France, with sales totaling 40 million copies.<\/p>\n

Mireille Mathieu, Henri D\u00e8s, C\u00e9line Dion, Dalida, Roch Voisine, Mich\u00e8le Torr, Doroth\u00e9e, Chantal Goya, Thierry Gali, and the late Claude Fran\u00e7ois, are among the French and Quebec artists to have performed Petit Papa No\u00ebl.<\/p>\n

There is no known English version of Petit Papa No\u00ebl. However, the chorus is sometimes sung in English by some artists, notably in Celine Dion's version.<\/p>\n

\nLyrics French version<\/p>\n

It's the beautiful Christmas night
\nThe snow spreads its white coat
\nAnd eyes raised to the sky
\nOn your knees, little children
\nBefore closing your eyelids
\nSay one last prayer.<\/p>\n

Little Santa Claus
\nWhen you come down from heaven
\nWith toys by the thousands
\nDon't forget my little shoe.<\/p>\n

But before you go
\nYou will have to cover yourself well
\nYou'll be so cold outside
\nIt's a bit because of me.<\/p>\n

I can't wait for the day to break
\nTo see if you brought me
\nAll the beautiful toys I see in my dreams
\nAnd that I commanded you.<\/p>\n

Little Santa Claus
\nWhen you come down from heaven
\nWith toys by the thousands
\nDon't forget my little shoe<\/p>\n

The sandman has passed by
\nThe children are going to sleep
\nAnd you can start
\nWith your hood on your back
\nTo the sound of church bells
\nYour distribution of surprises<\/p>\n

Little Santa Claus
\nWhen you come down from heaven
\nWith toys by the thousands
\nDon't forget my little shoe.<\/p>\n

If you have to stop
\nSur les toits du monde<\/a> entier
\nAll this before tomorrow morning
\nGet on your way quickly, quickly.<\/p>\n

And when you are on your beautiful cloud
\nCome to our house first
\nI haven't been very good every day.
\nBut I ask forgiveness.<\/p>\n

Little Santa Claus
\nWhen you come down from heaven
\nWith toys by the thousands
\nDon't forget my little shoe
\nLittle Santa Claus.<\/p>\n

The chorus in English<\/p>\n

Little Santa Claus
\nWhen you sail down from the sky
\nBringing toys, so shiny and so bright
\nPlease don't pass my little stocking by<\/p>\n

Before you leave your home
\nWear your bright red coat so warm
\nUnderstand it still a winter night
\nHow I'd wait you see my candlelight.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
