Lyrics and translation Billie Holiday - If You Were Mine

If You Were Mine

Si tu étais à moi

If you were mine

Si tu étais à moi

I could be a ruler of kings

Je pourrais être la reine des rois

And if you were mine

Et si tu étais à moi

I could do such wonderful things

Je pourrais faire des choses merveilleuses

I'd say to the stars

Je dirais aux étoiles

Stop where you are

Arrêtez-vous là où vous êtes

Light up my lover's way

Éclairez le chemin de mon amour

And every star above you would obey, say

Et chaque étoile au-dessus de toi obéirait, dis-le

If you were mine

Si tu étais à moi

I would live for your love alone

Je vivrais pour ton amour seul

To kneel at your shrine

Pour m'agenouiller à ton autel

I would give up all that I own

Je renoncerais à tout ce que je possède

Yes, even my heart

Oui, même mon cœur

Even my life

Même ma vie

I'd trade it all for you

Je l'échangerais tout pour toi

And think I was lucky too

Et penserais que j'ai de la chance aussi

If you were mine

Si tu étais à moi
