Attendez que ma joie revienne
Wait for my joy to return
Et que se meure le souvenir
And let the memory die
De cet amour de tant de peine
Of this love of so much pain
Qui n'en finit pas de mourir
Who never stops dying
Avant de me dire je t'aime
Before you tell me I love you
Avant que je puisse vous le dire
Before I can tell you
Attendez que ma joie revienne
Wait for my joy to return
Qu'au matin je puisse sourire
That in the morning I can smile
Laissez-moi. Le chagrin m'emporte
Leave me. The sorrow takes me away
Et je vogue sur mon délire
And I sail on my delirium
Laissez-moi. Ouvrez cette porte
Leave me. Open this door
Laissez-moi. Je vais revenir
Leave me. I will come back
J'attendrai que ma joie revienne
I will wait for my joy to return
Et que soit mort le souvenir
And let the memory die
De cet amour de tant de peine
Of this love of so much pain
Pour lequel j'ai voulu mourir
For which I wanted to die
J'attendrai que ma joie revienne
I will wait for my joy to return
Qu'au matin je puisse sourire
That in the morning I can smile
Que le vent ait séché ma peine
May the wind dry up my pain
Et la nuit calmé mon délire
And the night calmed my delirium
Il est, paraît-il, un rivage
There is, it seems, a shore
Où l'on guérit du mal d'aimer
Where we heal from the pain of loving
Les amours mortes y font naufrage
Dead loves are shipwrecked there
Epaves mortes du passé
Dead wrecks of the past
Si tu veux que ma joie revienne
If you want my joy to return
Qu'au matin, je puisse sourire
That in the morning I can smile
Vers ce pays où meurt la peine
Towards this country where pain dies
Je t'en prie, laisse-moi partir
Please let me go
Il faut de mes amours anciennes
It takes my old loves
Que périsse le souvenir
Let the memory perish
Pour que, libérée de ma chaîne
So that, freed from my chain
Vers toi, je puisse revenir
To you I can return
Alors, je t'en fais la promesse
So I promise you
Ensemble nous irons cueillir
Together we will go and pick
Au jardin fou de la tendresse
In the crazy garden of tenderness
La fleur d'amour qui va s'ouvrir
The flower of love that will open
Mais c'est trop tôt pour dire je t'aime
But it's too early to say I love you
Trop tôt pour te l'entendre dire
Too early to hear you say it
La voix que j'entends, c'est la sienne
The voice I hear is his
Ils sont vivants, mes souvenirs
They are alive, my memories
Pardonne-moi c'est lui que j'aime
Forgive me, it's him I love
Le passé ne veut pas mourir
The past doesn't want to die
