La Lettre [English translation]

The night is so nice

Dark and cruel

But I cannot find sleep

You will read my letter

Tomorrow maybe

Some words to you

Some words of love

Written at the crack of dawn

That my lost heart

Cannot conceal anymore

The more I look at you

The more I love you

That is something to madden somebody

You know, my soul

Is well in pain

I only think of you

Away from your pale eyes

Where should I go?

Your icy look

Makes my night foolish

Whoever sent this letter to you

Is not that far from you

But you may know me

I have lived underneath

You know, I do not mind

Death

Without being yours

Sir, scandals

Make you blush

They paint your cheeks

Let me kiss

Your chaste lips

May my lips keep

As a souvenir of you
