Translation in english (made by kathryn -kmt49) : "Dear Mireille, so many fairy godmothers were looking after you, and you didn't even know it.
Your happy childhood dreams in a very modest home seemed impossible to reach yet nevertheless they all came true, and beyond your wildest dreams...
Your father was a stone-cutter : a noble profession, but the pay was poor. How did your mother do it ? Raise fourteen children ? Have the family sing and stand by you in the "Croisière" district of Avignon ? You need a lot of love to succeed at all that ! And that's without a doubt the key of your own destiny.
Do you remember, today, as we do, your first radio and television appearances ? You sang without ever realizing the fact that the announcers and technicians alike were utterly stunned by your performance.
We were stunned as well, the public that immediately fell in love with you. Millions of admirers also fell immediately in love with you : so fresh, so innocent. Dear Mireille, you were innocence itself.
Johnny Stark, who had a heart as big as the hero of a western, protected this innocence. And as for Bruno Coquatrix, he was the same : he helped you to bring that innocence to the audience at the Olympia.
You became very famous very quickly. But Avignon is so far away and so very small on the map when you are in New-York rushing between luxury hotels, recording studios, and the Ed Sullivan Show. Ed Sullivan : who made so many stars tremble with fear ! Except for you, little lady of Avignon to the ends of the Earth ; through it all remain faithful to your family, to France.
Elvis took you for the younger sister the South of another time. Maurice Chevalier said itself : here is the grand-daughter I would have love to have had ! Dean Martin thought : Hmm ! This lovely fiancée of all of France ; I'd love to keep her for myself ! And din't the pope himself remind you that "happy are the pure of heart ?"
Well, you are a little like me, too. You like royalty ; you like queens. we aren't wrong, because Elizabeth returns that affection to you as well.
You have been singing all over the face of the earth for almost thirty years now. By the way, do you still have your beautiful accent from Provence when you sing in russain or in Chinese ?
All over the world we listen to you with the same affection : those who are here and so many others so far away ; the powerful and the unknown...We listen because you bring to each something even deeper : the image of the best of France, who offers the gift of freedom by smiling."
