Augustin [English translation]
Augustin [English translation]
"My dear child, please stay at home tonight
It will be dark soon"
"Please, Mum, you know that we will meet tonight
He can't go on his own, right?
If he has to wait for his girl for just one second
He'll go home immediately and he'll never come back again"
Augustin never waits for a girl in love
He's young, he's king, he's handsome and popular
Hold my hat, where are my shoes?
Get the brooch from my casket
I'm going to meet Augustin soon!
My dear Mum, don't wait up, please
I'll be twenty-two soon
It won't be as late as two nights ago
Oh... I've got to hurry now
If I run, I'll make it just on time
Ah... I've got a run in my stocking, right now of course!
Augustin never waits for a girl in love
He's young, he's king, he's handsome and popular
Is he going to go away now to whistle for Kristin
Or are you going to wait for me, Augustin?
Puzzled and worried, he's standing in the moonlight
What about his nonchalance now?
He'd never thought he'd truckle to a girl who's late
No, it was always another one who'd get a chance
But that's how life goes—what you can't get
Is what you want most, if you know what I mean
Augustin got to wait until he was just as in love
Despite being young, being king, being handsome and popular
Yeah, that's who things go for someone who becomes a man too son
And Augustin will never forget that
