Toi qui reviens d'une course lointaine
You who return from a distant race
Le cœur léger
Lighthearted
Regarde bien ici l'eau des fontaines
Take a good look at the water in the fountains here
N'a pas changé
Did not change
Repose-toi de poursuivre la gloire
Rest from chasing glory
Quelques instants
Moments
Penche ton front et là tu pourras boire
Bend your forehead and there you can drink
Tout comme avant
Just like before
Nous monterons tous deux sur la terrasse
We will both go up to the terrace
Au mur de lierre
At the ivy wall
Si près du ciel qu'un seul regard embrasse
So close to the sky that a single glance embraces
La ville entière
The whole city
Et tu verras que rien ne nous échappe
And you will see that nothing escapes us
De ces palais
Of these palaces
De ces jardins, de ce dôme où le pape
Of these gardens, of this dome where the pope
Prie pour la paix
Pray for peace
Dans les sentiers où l'ombre s'évertue
In the paths where the shadow strives
À ne salir
Not to get dirty
Aucun détail délicat des statues
No delicate details of the statues
Qu'on voit pâlir
That we see fading
Nous parlerons de nos anciens automnes
We will talk about our old autumns
Quel joli temps
What lovely weather
En souriant au bonheur que nous donne
Smiling at the happiness that gives us
Ce vieux printemps
This old spring
Nous parlerons de nos anciens automnes
We will talk about our old autumns
Quel joli temps
What lovely weather
En souriant au bonheur que nous donne
Smiling at the happiness that gives us
Ce vieux printemps
This old spring
Rome
Rome
