Oh ! je voudrais tant que tu te souviennes
Oh! I wish you so much to remember
Des jours heureux où nous étions amis.
Happy days when we were friends.
En ce temps-là la vie était plus belle,
At that time life was more beautiful,
Et le soleil plus brûlant qu'aujourd'hui.
And the sun is scorching than today.
Les feuilles mortes se ramassent à la pelle.
Dead leaves are picked up with a shovel.
Tu vois, je n'ai pas oublié...
You see, I haven't forgotten...
Les feuilles mortes se ramassent à la pelle,
Dead leaves are picked up with a shovel,
Les souvenirs et les regrets aussi
Memories and regrets too
Et le vent du nord les emporte
And the north wind carries them away
Dans la nuit froide de l'oubli.
In the cold night of oblivion.
Tu vois, je n'ai pas oublié
You see, I haven't forgotten
La chanson que tu me chantais.
The song you were singing to me.
C'est une chanson qui nous ressemble.

Toi, tu m'aimais et je t'aimais
You loved me and I loved you
Et nous vivions tous deux ensemble,
And we both lived together,
Toi qui m'aimais, moi qui t'aimais.
You who loved me, I who loved you.
Mais la vie sépare ceux qui s'aiment.
But life separates those who love each other.
Tout doucement, sans faire de bruit
Slowly, without making any noise
Et la mer efface sur le sable
And the sea clears on the sand
Les pas des amants désunis.
The steps of disunited lovers.
Mais la vie sépare ceux qui s'aiment.
But life separates those who love each other.
Tout doucement, sans faire de bruit
Slowly, without making any noise
Et la mer efface sur le sable
And the sea clears on the sand
Les pas des amants désunis.
The steps of disunited lovers.
Et la mer efface sur le sable
And the sea clears on the sand
Les pas des amants désunis.
The steps of disunited lovers.
C'est une chanson qui nous ressemble

Toi, tu m'aimais et je t'aimais

Toi qui m'aimais, moi qui t'aimais.
You who loved me, I who loved you.
Mais la vie sépare ceux qui s'aiment,
But life separates those who love each other
Tout doucement, sans faire de bruit
Slowly, without making any noise
Et la mer efface sur le sable
And the sea clears on the sand
Les pas des amants désunis.
