Milord [English translation]

Come on in, Milord,

sit down at my table;

It's so cold outside,

but it's warm in here.

Relax, Milord,

get comfortable,

Tell me your troubles

and put your feet up.

I know you, Milord

though you have never seen me

I'm just a nobody,

a shadow of the street...

Yet we've brushed each other

when you passed by yesterday.

You were so very proud

Goodness! Were the heavens smiling!

Your silk scarf

floating on your shoulders

You had the beautiful role

You looked just like a King... 

You walked, a conqueror,

A lady on your arm

My God! She was so beautiful

It chills my heart...

R./

Sometimes, all that is needed

Is for a ship to appear

And all is ripped apart

When the ship leaves.

That ship was taking away

the tender-eyed, sweet one

Who did not understand

that she was breaking your heart!

Love, it makes you cry

It proves that life

gives you all chances,

to take them all away…

Come on in, Milord,

you look like a poor kid!

Relax, Milord,

come into my kingdom.

I take care of regrets,

I sing of romance,

I sing the gentlemen

Down on their luck!

Look at me, Milord,

You've never seen me

Wait...you're crying, Milord?

That, I cannot believe!

Come on, Milord!

Smile at me, Milord!

You can do better!

Just a little effort…

That's it!

Come on, laugh, Milord!

Come on, sing, Milord!

La-la-la...

That's right, dance, Milord!

La-la-la….bravo, Milord!

La-la-la…again, Milord! La-la-la...
