Baiser d'adieu [English translation]

I had put down on your sleeping lips

A furtive kiss, a light kiss.

On the bedside table, without a sound

Near a photo, I left a message.

It's a kiss, the lightest

It's a farewell kiss.

In the message, there are few simple sentences

Why I'm leaving you, how I love you.

In the rain, I walk, I laugh alone

I think about your pretty face, your clumsy words.

It's a kiss, the lightest

It's a farewell kiss.

I had put down on your sleeping lips

A furtive kiss, a light kiss

But once outside,

The delicious taste of the farewell kiss

Refuses to leave me.

Then without thinking, I turn back.

It's really ridiculous, now I'm running.

In the dark bedroom, I burnt the message.

You're still sleeping

I put down on your lips

A kiss, the lightest

It's a farewell kiss.

It's a kiss, the lightest

It's a radiant kiss.
