La rumeur

Écoute, mon frère, ce qu'on dit de nous là-bas
Au village, on dit
Que tu es maudit
Ils murmurent même que la veille du sabbat
On se dit "je t'aime"
Couchés au fond du bois
{Refrain:}
Si l'on en croit la rumeur
Nous serions deux enfants du diable
Si l'on en croit la rumeur
Il faudrait nous brûler sur l'heure
Écoute bien la rumeur
Elle chante fort à mes oreilles
Écoute bien la rumeur
Serre-moi fort, vois-tu, j'ai peur
Pourtant nous vivons
Loin de tous ces gens depuis
Que notre vieux père
S'est ôté la vie
Est-il vrai mon frère
Qu'il était un peu sorcier
Et qu'il savait faire
De l'or avec du blé ?
{au Refrain, x2}
