J'envoie valser [English translation]

I see some people who give, give each other jewels

in the neck

it's beautiful but still

those are only little stones

stones that fool, fool you

and that leak

on the cheeks

I prefer that you love me

without spending money.

I care nothing for it

I send waltzing

this fake stuff

the golden cages

you when you hug me tight

it's like a treasure

and that

that is worth gold

I see some people who throw glances at each other

and flowers

and then leave each other somewhere

or elsewhere

between the roses and the cabbage

I know a lot who'd be better off loving each other a little

a little like us

who do love each other a lot

and sending

elsewhere

waltzing

the rings and the

hearts

for the necklace

because when you love each other strongly

it's like a treasure

and that

and that is worth gold

me, forever

I send waltzing

the gold-plated proofs of love

since you hold me tight

my treasure is there

it's you

you who are worth gold
