L'oiseau [English translation]

I know light mist

Pink snow and winter mornings

I would like to find you again

The white hare we never see

But the bird, the bird flew away

And I'll never find him again

Because I saw, I saw the bird

I saw the bird, I know he was leaving

I heard him crying

The beautiful bird that the wind was chasing

I would like to give you everything

But why don't you tell me something?

What's your big secret?

A man's secret

I understand that well

But you know, I can tell you about

How the bird left with regret

If one day you would listen to me

You'd learn everything I know

The bird leaves and then comes back

You may see him tomorrow

If I ever meet

That beautiful bird that flew away

If he returns from his trip

Close to you along the shore

But see, I'll tell him

How much I know he meant to you

It's the bird you loved

The jealous bird, I guessed it

If he returns from his trip

I'll tell him you were waiting for him
