Adieu mon cœur
Goodbye my heart
On te jette au malheur
They throw you into misery
Tu n'auras pas mes yeux
You won't have my eyes
Pour mourir
To die
Adieu mon cœur
Goodbye my heart
Les échos du bonheur
The echoes of happiness
Font tes chants tristes
Make your songs sad
Autant qu'un repentir
As much as a regret
Autrefois tu respirais le soleil d'or
Once you breathed in golden sun
Tu marchais sur des trèsors
You walked on treasures
On était vagabonds
We were wanderers
On aimait les chansons
We loved the songs
Ça fini dans les prisons
It ends in prisons
Adieu mon cœur
Goodbye my heart
On te jette au malheur
They throw you into misfortune
Tu n'auras pas mes yeux
You won't have my eyes
Pour mourir
To die
Adieu mon cœur
Goodbye my heart
Les échos du bonheur
The echoes of happiness
Font tes chants tristes
Make your sad songs
Autant qu'un repentir
As much as a remorse
Un repentir
A remorse
