Quand nous chanterons le temps des cerises
When we sing about cherry time
Et gai rossignol et merle moqueur
And cheerful nightingale and mockingbird
Seront tous en fête
Will all be celebrating
Les belles auront la folie en tête
The beautiful will have madness on their minds
Et les amoureux du soleil au cœur
And sun lovers at heart
Quand nous chanterons le temps des cerises
When we sing about cherry time
Sifflera bien mieux le merle moqueur
The mockingbird will whistle much better
Mais il est bien court le temps des cerises?
But is cherry time really short?
Ou l'on s'en va deux cueillir en rêvant?
Or do we go off and pick two while dreaming?
Des pendants d'oreilles?
Drop earrings?
Cerises d'amour aux robes pareilles?
Love cherries in dresses like this?
Tombant sous la feuilles en gouttes de sang?
Falling under the leaves in drops of blood?
Mais il est bien court le temps des cerises?
But is cherry time really short?
Pendants de corail qu'on cueille en rêvant
Coral pendants that we pick while dreaming
J'aimerai toujours le temps des cerises?
Will I always love cherry time?
C'est de ce temps-là que je garde au cœur?
Is that the time I remember in my heart?
Une plaie ouverte?
An open wound?
Et Dame Fortune en m'étant offerte?
And Lady Fortune being offered to me?
Ne pourra jamais fermer ma douleur?
Can never close my pain?
J'aimerai toujours le temps des cerises?
Will I always love cherry time?
Et le souvenir que je garde au cœur
And the memory that I keep in my heart
