Ma plus belle histoire d'amour [English translation]

Even further, than I remember,

The shadow of my past lovers,

Even further than our first meeting;

The times of our first arguments,

Then, I was fifteen, hardly,

A heart completely white, and scratches on my knees,

And that which will happen, I was precicious,

With the tender loving of a kid,

Or the bites of a mad lover,

The furthest that I remember,

It was then, that I said "I love you",

My most beautiful love story, is you.

It's true, I was not wise,

And I turned the pages well,

Without reading them, white, and with nothing on them,

It's true, I wasn't wise,

And my wars on the way,

Painful sights, already disappeared,

But through seeing them;

It was again your image,

It was you again and my naked heart,

I re-packed my suitcases,

And followed by mirage,

My most beautiful love story, it's you.

On the long road,

Which leads towards you,

On the long road,

I followed my mad heart,

The December wind,

Froze my neck,

That important December,

It was for you.

She was a long road,

But I completed it, the road,

That there, which led only to you,

And I am not a perjurer,

If that evening, I judged you,

That, for you, I fell to my knees,

I needed you more than the others,

Than all the bad apostles;

That the winter of the snow on my neck,

Because I lost patience,

And I calmed my violence,

My most beautiful love story, it's you.

The winter- and autumn-time,

Of night, of day, and no-one,

You were never at our meeting,

And you, losing courage,

Suddenly, it gave me rage,

My God, I needed you,

The Devil took you,

Others opened their doors for me,

Fortunately, I took myself far from you,

Yes, I was unfaithful to you

But you never returned,

My most beautiful love story, it's you.

I cried my tears,

But they were sweet,

Oh, they were sweet,

That first smile of yours,

And for a tear,

Which came to you,

I cried with love,

Do you remember?

It was an evening in September,

You had come to wait for me,

Here, even, do you remember?

Qu'importe ce qu'on peut en dire,

Je tenais à vous le dire,

Ce soir je vous remercie de vous,

Qu'importe ce qu'on peut en dire,

Je suis venue pour vous dire,

Ma plus belle histoire d'amour, c'est vous...

I saw you laugh,

I loved you, without saying anything,

It's that which I understand, all of a sudden,

I had finsihed my journey,

And I composed myself,

You had come to our meeting,

The most important thing that we can say there,

I came to say it to you,

That evening I thanked you for you,

The most important thing that we can say,

I came to tell you,

My most beautiful love story, it's you.....
