Puisque vous partez en voyage [English translation]
Puisque vous partez en voyage [English translation]
[Jacques] He thanks her for having accompanied her to the station.
[Françoise] Are you talking seriously or are you kidding me?
[Jacques] But no, he was not laughing at her, look.
These newspapers, these cigars, all that.
[Françoise] Oh, I lack originality, it’s true.
Do you know that we are parting for the very first time?
[Jacques] Yes, but after all it is not very long and then he is only leaving for fifteen days.
[Françoise] Wait a little bit, do I understand that you are going to spend these fifteen horrible days without counting the hours?
Since you are leaving for a trip
[Jacques] Since we are leaving each other tonight
My heart is taking lessons
[Françoise] I want to smile with courage.
You have put down your luggage forward, across the corridor.
[Jacques] And for the big typical goodbyes
I have prepared my big tissue. In a moment the train sets off.
[Françoise] I will remain alone in the platform and you see me in the station.
[Jacques] Telling me "goodbye", over there, with your bouquet.
[Françoise] Promise me to be wise, think of me every day.
[Jacques] And return to our cage for better waiting for my return.
[Françoise] Well there you have a quite quiet place.
No neighbor, no face-to-face, no one to disturb you.
[Jacques] He is hoping that it is non-smoking at least.
[Françoise] Definitely, you are incorrigible. And I thought that a little isolation will help you relax...
[Jacques] And then what? Oh lala!
[Françoise] Since you are leaving for a trip
[Jacques] You have promised me, my darling
[Françoise] To write you fourteen pages
[Jacques] Every morning or more. So that I can see your face
[Françoise] Lower the window, I beg you!
[Jacques] This is awful, I am losing all my courage!
[Françoise] And I hate Paris.
[Jacques] The controller is shouting 'get in'. The bastard, he already knows well
[Françoise] That I have to stay, but I swear that if he shouts it one more time, I am coming.
[Jacques & Françoise] I have my love for luggage and for all the rest? We do not care.
[Françoise] Since you are leaving for a trip
[Jacques & Françoise] My darling, I am leaving with you!
