Cécilia, ton lit est trop dur
Cecilia, your bed is too hard
Pourtant on y fait de beaux rêves
Yet there are beautiful dreams
O cécilia, ton vin est trop doux
O cecilia, your wine is too sweet
Mais j'aime son goût sur tes lèvres
But I like its taste on your lips
Cécilia, quand on a vingt ans
Cecilia, when you're twenty
On a tout le temps d'être fidèle
We have plenty of time to be faithful
O cécilia, si tu ne l'es pas
O cecilia, if you're not
Je ne t'en veux pas pour autant
I don't blame you for that
Tu es belle et dans ton sixième
You're beautiful and in your sixth
Quand on s'aime c'est le septième ciel
When you love one another it's the seventh heaven
Et tant pis si quelques fois
And never mind if a few times
Les fleurs que tu reçois sont d'un autre que moi
The flowers you receive are from someone other than me
Cécilia, ton lit est trop dur
Cecilia, your bed is too hard
Pourtant on y fait de beaux rêves
Yet there are beautiful dreams
O cécilia, ton vin est trop doux
O cecilia, your wine is too sweet
Mais j'aime son goût sur tes lèvres
But I like its taste on your lips
Tu es belle, tu as vingt ans
You're beautiful, you're twenty years old
Et tu m'aimes pour passer le temps
And you love me to pass the time
Et le temps passe et la saison
And time passes and the season
Viendra où j'aurai seul la clé de ta maison
Will come where I will have the key to your house alone
Cécilia, ton lit est trop dur
Cecilia, your bed is too hard
Pourtant on y fait de beaux rêves
Yet there are beautiful dreams
O cécilia, ton vin est trop doux
O cecilia, your wine is too sweet
Mais j'aime son goût sur tes lèvres
But I like its taste on your lips
