La Valse de Paris [English translation]

I am nostalgic of my youth

Of those party days, in the heart of France

With emotion, I remember correctly

Of this song, of this chorus to which i return

This is the waltz which i hear

In my segment of old Paris

The melody the evening lifted

Happily in the gray sky

On the sidewalk, one smiles

The Bois de Boulogne is flowered

And so much which i lived

Never will i forget

The waltz of Paris

I remember the huge boulevards

The journalists, the great gossip

I see again in your arms (The light and day in high spirits)

The bridges, the Concord and the Seine

The taxis, in front of the Madeleine

The Louvre, the museums

And like a rocket

The light of Champs Elysées

This is the waltz which i hear

In my segment of old Paris

The melody the evening lifted

Happily in the gray sky

On the sidewalk, one smiles

The Bois de Boulogne is flowered

And so much which i lived

Never will i forget

The waltz of Paris
