La marchande de journaux ferme son étalage
The newsagent closes her display
L'homme à l'accordéon a plié son bagage
The man with the accordion has packed his luggage
C'est la nuit de Paris qui tombe doucement
It's Paris night falling slowly
Bonnes gens soyez sages
Good people be wise
Des couples d'amoureux s'en vont main dans la main
Loving couples leave hand in hand
Échangeant des baisers sans songer à demain
Exchanging kisses without thinking of tomorrow
Sur les bords de la Seine des clochards rentrent tard
On the banks of the Seine, tramps come home late
Et le cœur lourd de peine
And the heart heavy with sorrow
Mais dans un sourire
But in a smile
Un rêve les prend
A dream takes them
Et fait qu'ils soupirent
And makes them sigh
Tendrement
Tenderly
Le promeneur solitaire qui ne va pas chez lui
The lonely walker who doesn't go home
Rêve de joies éphémères et de bonheur détruit
Dream of fleeting joys and destroyed happiness
Il chemine d'un pas lent qui résonne dans la nuit
He walks with a slow step that resonates in the night
Qui résonne tristement
Which resonates sadly
Mais le soleil
But the sun
Qui ne sait pas tout ça
Who doesn't know all this
Sonne le réveil
Sounds the alarm
Et la nuit finit là
And the night ends there
La marchande de journaux rouvre son étalage
The newsagent reopens its display
L'homme à l'accordéon installe son bagage
The man with the accordion sets up his luggage
Il chante des chansons qui vont au firmament
He sings songs that go to the firmament
Réveiller les amants
Wake up the lovers
Qui s'éveillent gentiment
Who wake up gently
Car c'est un jour charmant
Because it's a lovely day
