La Javanaise [English translation]

I admit I went through hell, didn’t you my love ?

Before I caught wind of you (met you) my love.

Whether it pleases your or not

In dancing the Javanaise

We loved each other for the length of a song

In your opinion what have we seen of love?

From you to me you really had me going (you had me fooled) my love

Whether it pleases your or not

In dancing the Javanaise

We loved each other for the length of a song

Alas, April in vain dedicates me to love

I wanted to see that love in you my love

Whether it pleases your or not

In dancing the Javanaise

We loved each other for the length of a song

Life is not worth living without love

But you’re are the one who wanted it that way my love

Whether it pleases your or not

In dancing the Javanaise

We loved each other for the length of a song
