Je n'ai que mon cœur [English translation]

I don't have any fortune

Nor any sleeping treasure

I am a moon dust

In the sunlight

I have no palace

Not any crown to offer you,

If you follow me where I go

You will never have an empire.

I have no wealth

more precious than my love,

I only am a promise.

I have nothing more to give you

Than my eyes to admire your beauty,

And my heart to protect you.

I only have my voice to sing

And the sky to shelter you

I only have my heart to love you.

I only have my heart to love you,

And my live to give you.

I don't have the name of a prince,

I don't wear the garment of a king,

And my wallet is so thin

That it tapers between my fingers.

I can sleep on straw

Dreaming of satin,

If you follow me where I go

My soul will be your private garden.

I am not entitled to the honors

That go so well with the feasts,

I prefer your happiness.

I have nothing more to give you

Than my eyes to admire your beauty,

And my heart to protect you

I only have my voice to sing

And the sky to shelter you

I only have my heart to love you,

I only have my heart to love you,

And my life to give to you.
