"Une colombe" (lit.'A dove') is the first single from Celine Dion's album Mélanie. It was issued in June 1984 in Quebec, Canada.[1] The song was written by Marcel Lefebvre and Paul Baillargeon.[2] Its lyrics describe a world guided by peace, love, and friendship.

On 10 September 1984, Dion performed "Une colombe" for Pope John Paul II and 65,000 people at the Olympic Stadium in Montreal, Quebec. The single received two Félix Awards: Best Selling Single of the Year, and Pop Song of the Year. It later appeared on Dion's 2005 greatest hits album, On ne change pas.
