Des fleurs pour Salinger [English translation]

Would it be possible for me to talk to him,

meet him ?

Would it be possible for me to talk to him

without annoying him?

In his room with worship

Long before the American psyche

Do not be angry with Zen, he retired from the world

From a whole world.

Hold flowers for Salinger

Tenant of a monastery

Flowers for Salinger

Oh ! Oh ! Oh !

The devil of the raging writings

Oh ! Oh ! Oh !

Go hold flowers for Salinger

Tenant of a monastery

But give him a few secrets to keep

His intimacy

It is to protect himself, he is tired

Of all your stupidities.

Hold flowers for Salinger

Tenant of a monastery

Flowers for Salinger

Oh ! Oh ! Oh !

I would pretend to be dumb

And I would marry that girl

Deaf and dumb

We will live near a stream, near the woods

But not in the woods ...

Hold flowers for Salinger

Tenant of a monastery

Flowers for Salinger

Oh ! Oh ! Oh !

The devil of the raging writings

Oh ! Oh ! Oh !

Flowers, flowers for Salinger

Oh ! Oh ! Oh !
