Printed on second page:
L'Union des Villes et Communes Belges
a le plaisir
de vous offrir
ces chansons,
rassemblées
à votre intention,
pour la première fois,
par Jacques Brel.
Puissent
ces poèmes en musique,
vous rappeler
votre séjour
en Belgique
lors du
XVIème congrès I.U.L.A.

Jacques Brel
has for the first time
and expressly
for you gathered
these few poems
singing our country.
The Belgian Union of Local Authorities
is pleased
to offer you
this record
hoping it will help you
to remind
your stay in Belgium
during
the XVIth congress I.U.L.A.

Il se pourrait bien - cet album en fait foi - qu'en Belgique
comme en France, tout finisse par des chansons.
Une exception pourtant : le succès de Jacques Brel ;
il n'a vraiment aucune raison d'en finir.
