Mille violons chantent leur mélodie
A thousand violins sing their melody
Un arc-en-ciel dans le ciel se déplie
A rainbow unfolds in the sky
Mais il me semble être encore sous la pluie
But I still feel like I'm under the rain
Si malheureuse, quand il m'a dit
So unhappy, when he told me
Ciao, ciao Bambina
Ciao, ciao Bambina
Dis-moi je t'aime, pour la dernière, dernière fois
Tell me you love me, for the last, last time
Bientôt petite, je vais te perdre
Soon, little one, I'm going to lose you
J'ai de la peine embrasse-moi
I'm feeling sad, kiss me
Ciao, ciao Bambina
Ciao, ciao Bambina
Un jour on s'aime et l'on se quitte
One day we love and then we part
L'amour c'est ça
Love is that
Dans tes yeux tristes, tout le ciel pleure
In your sad eyes, the whole sky weeps
Et moi je pleure, pleure avec toi
And I cry, cry with you
Ciao bambina
Goodbye, little girl
Ti voglio bene da morire
I love you to death
Ciao, ciao
Goodbye, goodbye
Ciao, ciao Bambina
Goodbye, goodbye little girl
Qui sait? Ma route croisera la tienne peut-être un jour
Who knows? Maybe our paths will cross one day
Et le ciel même ce soir en doute
And even the sky doubts tonight
Il pleure, pleure
It weeps, weeps
Sul nostro amore
On our love
