Petite fleur [English translation]

Should all the flowers

by the side of the roads

wither tomorrow,

I would keep in my heart

the one who

bloomed1 in your eyes

when I loved you so,

in the wonderland

of our sweet sixteen2.

Little flower of love,

you will always bloom

for me.

When life

betrays me now and then

you remain my joy,

little flower.

After twenty years

I ponder for a while

and breathe in

this scent I loved so.

Within my heart

you will always bloom

in the great garden of love,

little flower...

(break)

Within my heart

you will always bloom

in the great garden of love,

little flower...
