Pour toi, mon amour [English translation]

I went to the market of birds

And I bought birds

For you

My love

I went to the market of flowers

And I bought flowers

For you

My love

I went to the market of ironwork

And I bought chains

Heavy chains

For you

My love

And then I went to the market of slaves

And I looked for you

But I did not find you there

My love
