De la fenêtre de mon train
From my train window
Un soir j'ai vu une fille
One evening I saw a girl
Qui avait les cheveux si clairs
Who had such light hair
Que j'ai cru un instant rêver
That for a moment I thought I was dreaming
Nous étions à la fin du jour
We were at the end of the day
Et j'avais longtemps, longtemps voyagé
And I had traveled a long, long time
J'avais des cendres dans la bouche
I had ashes in my mouth
Et je me sentais fatigué
And I felt tired
Mais les cheveux de cette fille
But this girl's hair
Si blonds, si clairs, si transparents
So blond, so clear, so transparent
Me redonnèrent cette fraîcheur
Gave me back this freshness
Que connaissent seuls les enfants
What only children know
Elle n'attendait rien ni personne
She wasn't expecting anything or anyone
Je suis descendu sur le quai
I went down to the platform
Elle m'a fait visiter sa ville
She showed me around her town
Et marcher dans des champs de blé
And walk through fields of wheat
Près d'un fleuve sauvage et rapide
Near a wild and fast river
Nous avons ensemble dormi
We slept together
Et je crois bien l'avoir aimée
And I think I loved her
Au bout de la première nuit
After the first night
Si vous prenez parfois le train
If you sometimes take the train
Surveillez les quais désertés
Watch for deserted docks
Quelque part il y a cette fille
Somewhere there is this girl
Elle ressemble à l'été
She looks like summer
Elle n'attendra rien ni personne
She won't wait for anything or anyone
Mais ne lui parlez pas de moi
But don't tell him about me
Car je l'ai quittée un matin
Because I left her one morning
Je me demande encore pourquoi
I still wonder why
C'était une fille aux yeux clairs
She was a girl with light eyes
Je veux conserver son image
I want to preserve his image
Je voudrais repousser l'hiver
I would like to postpone winter
Mais le temps tuera son visage
But time will kill his face
Je voudrais repousser l'hiver
I would like to postpone winter
Mais le temps tuera son visage
But time will kill his face
