Miss Acacia [English translation]

Oh, your eyelids flutter

Like black parasols

Of lace gathered from the twilight

So perfect,

When your eyes of honey melt into mine

Our lashes bat and purr like little cats

Trembling, oh

Refrain:

Oh Miss Acacia, I plant myself in you

But nothing will sprout from your belly

Except perhaps a cat

Or a monster?

No, nothing will sprout from your belly

Courage my heart, my old drum

You must bear the blow

It’s not every day that love grows

“Its ten little fingers”

Hang on to me!

You, chili pepper “Miss Acacia”

Darling heart, prickly hedgehog

Fast, hold me fast!

“I’ve kept all of your plantings after all”

All your chili peppers are starting to grow

“I’m fertile with you.”

Refrain

I don’t know what to do, to be…

But I know what I want you to be.

Oh, your eyelids flutter

Like black parasols

Of lace gathered from the night
