Ce fou de Nicolas [English translation]

We have danced eight days in Italy

we were three days in London

the public was won

we have played for the French

the entire room was standing up

at Palais des Sports in Paris.

The life of an artist is my life for me

the Bolchoi and the tours

let me get to know the great evenings

but when I come back home

Maria Ivanovna, I am happy to see you again.

How will make this mad Nicolas

he wanted to stay and live there.

If I was away from you and away from Russia

I know I'd die of nostalgia.

It is true that in France, everything is different

we walk at midnight and then we speak with people.

There are shops where you would like to take all away

and there are songs in the pubs.

Aux Champs-Elysees, I found for you

Makeup products and also fine tissues.

I spent some good times

But, Maria Ivanovna, I am happy to see you again.

How will make this mad Nicolas

he wanted to stay and live there.

If I was away from you and away from Russia

I know I'd die of nostalgia.

I remember you in my arms, Nicolas,

I took him tight on my heart in a departure lounge

he said he loved us, Maria Ivanovna,

but we will converse further another night.

He told me he loved us both

but talk to me rather of you

I am happy to see you again
