[English]

Ey, ah-ah-ah

Paris Saint-Germain

Haha

Ey

Paris is magic

It's Paris Saint-Germain

Paris is magic

It's Paris Saint-Germain (Paris, Paris)

Paris is magic

It's Paris Saint-Germain

Paris is magic

It's Paris Saint-Germain

We are champions of Europe and I celebrate it with you

With champagne bottles and all my friends (Haha)

Celebration in Paname thanks to destiny (Yeah)

Wearing the Paris shirt, baby, with your love

We achieved it with Donnarumma's saves (Eh)

Nothing gets past Hakimi on the wing (Oh-oh)

Vitinha with the ball, magic from the cradle

And if I say "Dembélé", allez, allez, allez

Red and blue the color of my skin (Yes)

We celebrate the trophy at the Eiffel Tower

Young legend like Doué

And 5-0 in finals, PSG emerges (Oh)

Paris is magic

It's Paris Saint-Germain

Paris is magic

It's Paris Saint-Germain (Paris, Paris)

Paris is magic

It's Paris Saint-Germain

Paris is magic

It's Paris Saint-Germain

I broke into the jewelry store

In the ram-raid car

I'm with Hakimi

Désiré, Dembélé

The Ballon d'Or is for me

I don't want the King's Cup

He betrayed Honda

For some tortilla

What a mistake, what a mistake

New jersey printed

They can't take it from me

Oh misfortune, oh misfortune

With Enrique in charge, they won't get back up

He brings out the heavy artillery

We don't make a fuss

We are the cursed ones

We always come out on top

Where you can't touch the bottom, we were sitting

I raise my D.U.C verse to the people of Marseille

Here is Paris, it's Paname

It's Rony, it's Messi, it's Beckham

We prayed for our dreams to come true

We won for Luis's daughter

Paris is magic

It's Paris Saint-Germain

Paris is magic

It's Paris Saint-Germain (Paris, Paris)

Paris is magic

It's Paris Saint-Germain

Paris is magic

It's Paris Saint-Germain

Paris is magic

It's Paris Saint-Germain

Paris is magic

It's Paris Saint-Germain (Paris, Paris)

Paris is magic

It's Paris Saint-Germain

Paris is magic

It's Paris Saint-Germain

All together we will sing

This love we have for you

Which will never stop

After so many years

Con botellas de champán y todo' mis amigos (Jaja)

Celebration en Pan Am gracias al destino (Yeah)

Con la camisa del París, mami, con tu cariño

Lo logramos con las salvadas de Donnarumma (Eh)

A Hakimi por la banda no se le pasa ninguna (Oh-oh)

Vitinha con la pelota, magia desde la cuna

Y si digo "Dembélé", alé, alé, alé

Rouge et bleu el color de mi piel (Sí)

Celebramos el trofeo en la Torre Eiffel

Joven leyenda como Doué

Y 5-0 en finales, sale el PSG (Oh)

Paris est magique

Es el Paris Saint-Germain

Paris est magique

Es el Paris Saint-Germain (Paris, Paris)

J'ai ouvert la bijouterie

Dans la voiture bélier

Je suis avec Hakimi

Désiré, Dembélé

Le ballon d'or c'est pour moi

Je veux pas la Coupe du Roi

Il a trahi la Honda

Pour de la tortilla

Quelle erreur, quelle erreur

Nouveau maillot floqué

On peut pas me l'enlever

Ô malheur, ô malheur

Enrique aux commandes, ils vont pas se relever

Il sort l'artillerie lourde

On fait pas de boucan

On est les maudits nous

On s'en sort tout le temps

Là où t'as pas pied, on s'asseyait

Je lève mon vers de D.U.C aux marseillais

Ici c'est Paris, c'est Paname

C'est Rony, c'est Messi, c'est Beckham

On a prié pour que nos rêves aboutissent

On a gagné pour la fille à Luis

Paris est magique

Es el Paris Saint-Germain

Paris est magique

Es el Paris Saint-Germain (Paris, Paris)

Paris est magique

Es el Paris Saint-Germain

Es el Paris Saint-Germain

Tous ensemble on chantera

Cet amour qu'on a pour toi

Qui ne cessera jamais

Après tant d'années

Key Grammar Structures

• Somos campeones de Europa y lo celebro contigo

  ➔ Direct Object Pronoun 'lo'

  ➔ The pronoun "lo" refers to the previous action or idea (being champions), replacing 'it' or 'that'. It's commonly used to avoid repetition.

• Y si digo "Dembélé", alé, alé, alé

  ➔ Conditional Clause (Si + Present Indicative)

  ➔ The structure "Si" + present indicative is used to express a real or very probable condition and its consequence, often in the present or future.

• Rouge et bleu el color de mi piel

  ➔ Implied Verb 'Ser' / Omission of 'es'

  ➔ In informal Spanish, the verb "ser" (to be) can sometimes be omitted when the meaning is clear, especially in descriptive phrases or titles. Here, 'es' is implied: 'Rouge et bleu *es* el color...'

• On peut pas me l'enlever

  ➔ Double Object Pronouns & Informal Negation (French)

  ➔ The phrase "me l'" combines the indirect object pronoun "me" (to me) and the direct object pronoun "l'" (it). The "ne" in "ne...pas" is omitted, which is very common in spoken/informal French.

• Là où t'as pas pied, on s'asseyait

  ➔ Relative Pronoun 'où' (place) + Imparfait

  ➔ "où" introduces a relative clause indicating a place ('where'). "s'asseyait" is in the imparfait, describing a habitual or continuous action in the past.

• Je lève mon vers de D.U.C aux marseillais

  ➔ Indirect Object with 'à' (French)

  ➔ The phrase "aux marseillais" (à + les marseillais) is an indirect object, indicating to whom the action ('Je lève...') is directed. This structure is common for verbs of giving, speaking, etc.

• On a prié pour que nos rêves aboutissent

  ➔ 'pour que' + Subjunctive (French)

  ➔ The conjunction "pour que" (in order that / so that) always introduces a clause in the subjunctive mood, expressing purpose or goal. "aboutissent" is the subjunctive form of 'aboutir'.

• On a gagné pour la fille à Luis

  ➔ Informal Possession with 'à' (French)

  ➔ In colloquial French, "à" can be used to indicate possession, similar to 'of' or 'belonging to', replacing the more formal "de" or a possessive adjective. E.g., 'le livre *à* Marie' = 'Marie's book'.
