Transcription
-1-
Il est un secret charmant dans mon cœur
Dont l’aveu ferait pourtant tout mon bonheur
J’ai souvent voulu te dire ce que mon cœur désire
Mais en te voyant sourire j’avais peur.
Refrain
Laisse-moi te dire le secret brûlant
Que je garde cacher depuis si longtemps
Laisse-moi te faire l’aveu de l’amour
Que j’ai pour toi dans mon cœur depuis toujours.
-2-
Je crois lire un peu d’espoir dans tes yeux
Ecouteras-tu ce soir mon aveu
D’abord ne soit pas cruelle
Car l’honneur qui nous appelle
Nous rendra la vie si belle si tu veux
Translation

There is a charming secret in my heart
To confess it would make me happy
I have often wanted to tell you what my heart desires
But seeing you smile I was afraid
Refrain:
Allow me to tell you the burning secret
That I have been keeping so long
Allow me to confess to you my love
I have had in my heart for you
- 2 -
It seems I read some hope in your eyes
Will you listen tonight to my confession
Do not be cruel at first
For love that calls us
Will make life so beautiful if you are willing
There is a charming secret in my heart
To confess it would make me happy
I have often wanted to tell you what my heart desires
But seeing you smile I was afraid
Refrain:
Allow me to tell you the burning secret
That I have been keeping so long
Allow me to confess to you my love
I have had in my heart for you
- 2 -
It seems I read some hope in your eyes
Will you listen tonight to my confession
Do not be cruel at first
For love that calls us
Will make life so beautiful if you are willing
