Transcription

-1-

C’est un aman volage
m’a mis son cœur en gage
Comme un oiseau qui vol
A l’ombre d’un feuillage

Refrain
Je t’aimerai comme un aimant
Tendrement toujours
Aimez moi tendrement l’amour

-2-

Je suis la souveraine
Que d’avoir eu ton cœur
Tu sais bien que je t’aime
Moi seul fera ton bonheur

-3-

Avant que de dire oui
Je voudrais bien savoir
Si tes jolis yeux noir
Ca fera mon bonheur

Translation

No. 2

Verse 1:  It’s a flighty lover
    That lends away his heart
    Like a bird who flies
    In the shadow of foliage

Refrain:  I will love you
    Tenderly always
    Love me tenderly

Verse 2:  I am like a queen
    Having your heart
     You know I love you
    I alone will make you happy

Verse 3:  Before I say yes
    I would like to know
    If your dark eyes
    Will give me happiness
