C'est la vie, Lily [English translation]

That's life, Lily

When you go in the streets of the city

All the world admires you and your smiles

And your youth makes the soldiers dream

That's life, Lily

When you go in the streets of the city

When you are beautiful, not very faithful

Very often you flirt with these soldiers

Turning, turning, The times pass(go)

In your eyes in front of your mirror

Yet you, you don't watch it go

That's life, Lily

When you go in the streets of the city

Selling some roses or other things

Yet you give so many nights to the soldiers

Turning, turning, the time passes

In my eyes in front of your mirror

But you, you do not look at it go

That's life, Lily

When you sleep in the streets of the city

You are well old, you remember yourself

When other times you once made the soldiers dream

Turning, turning, the time passes

In my eyes in front of your mirror

Yet you, you don't look at it go
