On me dit un minois mieux que joli, de même on me le dit
Et ce compliment me ravît
Il paraît que j'ai un drôle d'accent,
Joli drôle et troublant,
Qui vaut un regard caressant
J'ai l'air de voir la vie en rose, mais mon coeur rêve d'autre chose
Aimer, sincèrement de mon coeur tendre
Celui qui pourrait me comprendre, et s'il le fallait me défendre
Aimer, ah! je veux vivement qu'il vienne
Celui qui bercera la peine de mon âme de parisienne
Toute seule, hélas! je suis désormais
Et pourtant je croyais, lire dans ses yeux qu'il m'aimait
Il mentait je ne vais pas en mourir
À peine un peu souffrir, mais pas au point de m'enlaidir
J'ai l'air de voir la vie en rose, mais mon coeur rêve d'autre chose
Aimer, sincèrement de mon coeur tendre
Celui qui pourrait me comprendre, et s'il le fallait me défendre
Aimer, ah! je veux vivement qu'il vienne
Celui qui bercera la peine
De mon âme de parisienne |


They say of me that I have a pretty face, so I am told
And this compliment pleases me
It seems that I have a funny accent,
Beautiful, funny, and unsettling,
That brings a caressing look
I appear to see life in pink, but my heart dreams of something else
To love, sincerely from my tender heart
The one that could understand me, and if necessary to defend me
To love, oh! I want him so much to come
The one that will sooth the sadness of my Parisian soul
Alone, alas! I am from now on
And yet I believed, I read in his eyes that he loved me
He lied, I will not die from it
Barely will I suffer, but not to the point of loosing my beauty
I appear to see life in pink, but my heart dreams of something else
To love, sincerely from my tender heart
The one that could understand me, and if necessary to defend me
To love, oh! I want him so much to come
The one that will sooth the sadness of my Parisian soul
