Vive le vent, vive le vent,
Vive le vent d'hiver.
Qui s'en va sifflant, soufflant,
Dans les grands sapins verts.

Vive le temps, vive le temps,
Vive le temps d'hiver.
Boules de neige et Jour de l'An et
Bonne Année Grand-mère!

Ah! que la neige est belle,
Qui nous arrive du ciel.
Voici le temps d'Noël.
Gloire à l'Emmanuel!

Je vous offre mes voeux.
Acceptez-les tous deux.
Soyez toujours heureux,
Comme l'étaient nos aïeux!
