J'aime Paris Au Mois De Mai Lyrics in English Charles Aznavour

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song J'aime Paris Au Mois De Mai by Charles Aznavour from French to English.
J'aime Paris au mois de mai
I love Paris in the month of May
Quand les bourgeons renaissent
When the buds are reborn
Qu'une nouvelle jeunesse
When a new youth
S'empare de la vieille cité
Takes hold of the old city
Qui se met à rayonner
Which starts to shine
J'aime Paris au mois de mai
I love Paris in the month of May
Quand l'hiver le délaisse
When winter abandons it
Que le soleil caresse
When the sun caresses
Ses vieux toits à peine éveillés
Its old roofs barely awake
J'aime sentir sur les places
I love to feel on the squares
Dans les rues où je passe
In the streets where I pass
Ce parfum de muguet que chasse
That scent of lily of the valley that the wind
Le vent qui passe
Chases away
Il me plaît à me promener
I enjoy walking
Par les rues qui s'faufilent
Through the streets that wind
A travers toute la ville
Throughout the city
J'aime Paris au mois de mai
I love Paris in the month of May
J'aime le vent qui m'apporte
I love the wind that brings me
Des bruits de toutes sortes
Noises of all kinds
Et les potins que l'on colporte
And the gossip that is spread
De porte en porte
From door to door
Il me plaît à me promener
I enjoy walking
En souriant aux filles
Smiling at the girls
Dans les rues qui fourmillent
In the bustling streets
J'aime Paris au mois de mai
I love Paris in the month of May
J'aime Paris au mois de mai
I love Paris in the month of May
Avec ses bouquinistes
With its booksellers
Et ses aquarellistes
And its watercolorists
Que le printemps a ramené
That spring has brought back
Comme chaque année le long des quais
Like every year along the quays
J'aime Paris au mois de mai
I love Paris in the month of May
La Seine qui l'arrose
The Seine that waters it
Mille petites choses
A thousand little things
Que je ne pourrais expliquer
That I couldn't explain
J'aime quand la nuit sévère
I love when the severe night
Étend la paix sur terre
Spreads peace on earth
Et que la ville soudain s'éclaire
And suddenly the city lights up
De millions de lumières
With millions of lights
Il me plaît à me promener
I enjoy walking
Contemplant les vitrines
Contemplating the shop windows
La nuit qui me fascine
The night that fascinates me
J'aime, j'aime Paris au mois de mai
I love, I love Paris in the month of May
