Les sanglots longs des violons de l'automne

Les sanglots longs / The long sobs
Des violons / Of the violins
De l’automne / Of Autumn
Blessent mon cœur / Wound my heart
D’une langueur / With a monotonous
Monotone. / Languor.

Tout suffocant / All choked up
Et blême, quand / And pale, when
Sonne l'heure, / The hour chimes,
Je me souviens / I remember
Des jours anciens / Days of old
Et je pleure / And I cry

Et je m'en vais / And I'm going
Au vent mauvais / On an ill wind
Qui m'emporte / That carries me
Deçà, delà, / Here and there,
Pareil à la / Like a
Feuille morte. / Dead leaf.
