À la faveur de l'automne [English translation]

Standing in front of the window,

I'm watching out for

Lonely souls

For autumn's sake.

Standing in front of the window,

I regret

Not thinking about it,

Now that you're giving up.

For autumn's sake

Comes back this sweet melancholy.

One, two, three, four -

Like when one hums

Old melodies.

Staying near the telephone,

I wait

For your call,

For you to finally make up your mind.

You, your boyish looks

Please come and break the monotony

Of my days, of my nights.

For autumn's sake

Comes back this sweet melancholy

One, two, three, four -

Like when one hums

Old melodies.

For autumn's sake,

You make

My melancholy

Regain its super scopitone colours.

For autumn's sake.

How can I've

been such a fool ?

I had be warned.

This is the naked truth.

I would only take

The bad weather

To join in.

A raindrop

And then I really would have lost everything.
