Quand tu liras
When you read
Cette lettre-là
This letter
Tu comprendras que pour moi c'est fini
You will understand that for me it's over
Que tu es sorti
That you came out
À jamais de ma vie
Forever in my life
Quand tu liras
When you read
Cette lettre-là
This letter
Tu m'en voudras, tu me détesteras
You will blame me, you will hate me
Et pour une fois
And for once
C'est toi qui souffriras
It's you who will suffer
Quand tu liras
When you read
Cette lettre-là
This letter
Mais surtout
But above all
Ne crois pas
Do not believe
Qu'un autre amour viendra
That another love will come
Qui prendra
Who will take
Ta place
Your place
Ne crois pas ça
Don't believe that
Ce n'est pas vrai
This is not true
Je n'aimerai
I would not like
Que toi
Than you
Quand tu liras
When you read
Cette lettre-là
This letter
Ne souris pas si les mots sont brouillés
Don't smile if the words are garbled
C'est que des larmes
It's just tears
Sur ma lettre ont coulé
On my letter flowed
Quand tu liras
When you read
Cette lettre-là
This letter
Pourquoi mentir?
Why lie?
Je serai près de toi
I will be near you
Et je te dirai cachée entre tes bras
And I will tell you hidden between your arms
Ne la lis pas
Don't read it
Cette lettre-là
This letter
je t'en prie, ne la lis pas
please don't read it
Je t'en supplie, déchire-la
I beg you, tear it up
Je t'en prie, je t'en prie
Please, please
Je t'en prie, déchire-la
Please tear it up
