Lyrics and translation Billy Fury - This Diamond Ring

This Diamond Ring

Cette bague en diamant

Who wants to bu-u-uy this diamond ri-i-i-ing?

Qui veut acheter cette bague en diamant ?

She took it off her finger, now it doesn't mean a thi-i-i-ng

Elle l'a retirée de son doigt, maintenant elle ne signifie plus rien.

This diamond ring doesn't shine for me anymore

Cette bague en diamant ne brille plus pour moi.

And this diamond ring doesn't mean what it meant before

Et cette bague en diamant n'a plus le même sens qu'avant.

So if you've got someone whose love is tru-u-ue

Alors, si tu as quelqu'un dont l'amour est vrai,

Let it shine for yo-ou-ou

Laisse-la briller pour toi.

This stone is genuine like love should be-e-e-e

Cette pierre est authentique comme l'amour devrait l'être.

And if your baby's truer than my baby was to me-e-e-e

Et si ton bébé est plus vrai que ma chérie l'était pour moi,

This diamond ring can mean something beautiful

Cette bague en diamant peut signifier quelque chose de beau.

And this diamond ring can mean dreams that are coming true

Et cette bague en diamant peut signifier des rêves qui se réalisent.

And then your heart won't have to break like mine did

Et alors, ton cœur n'aura pas à se briser comme le mien.

If there's love behind it

S'il y a de l'amour derrière.

This diamond ring can mean something beautiful

Cette bague en diamant peut signifier quelque chose de beau.

And this diamond ring can mean dreams that are coming true

Et cette bague en diamant peut signifier des rêves qui se réalisent.

And then your heart won't have to break like mine did

Et alors, ton cœur n'aura pas à se briser comme le mien.

If there's love behind it

S'il y a de l'amour derrière.

This diamond ring doesn't shine for me anymore

Cette bague en diamant ne brille plus pour moi.

And this diamond ring doesn't mean what it meant before

Et cette bague en diamant n'a plus le même sens qu'avant.

FADE

So if you've got someone whose love is tru-u-ue

Alors, si tu as quelqu'un dont l'amour est vrai,

Let it shine for yo-ou-ou

Laisse-la briller pour toi.
