Lyrics and translation Eartha Kitt - What Is This Thing Called Love
I
was
a
humdrum
person
J'étais
une
personne
banale
Leading
a
life
apart
Menant
une
vie
à
part
When
love
flew
in
through
my
window
wide
Quand
l'amour
a
volé
par
ma
fenêtre
And
quickened
my
hum-drum
heart
Et
a
accéléré
mon
cœur
banal
Love
flew
in
through
my
window
L'amour
a
volé
par
ma
fenêtre
I
was
so
happy
then
J'étais
tellement
heureuse
alors
But
after
love
had
stayed
a
little
while
Mais
après
que
l'amour
soit
resté
un
peu
Love
flew
out
again
L'amour
a
décollé
à
nouveau
What
is
this
thing
called
love?
Qu'est-ce
que
c'est
que
cet
amour
?
This
funny
thing
called
love?
Cette
drôle
de
chose
appelée
amour
?
Just
who
can
solve
its
mystery?
Qui
peut
résoudre
son
mystère
?
Why
should
it
make
a
fool
of
me?
Pourquoi
devrait-il
se
moquer
de
moi
?
I
saw
you
there
one
wonderful
day
Je
t'ai
vu
là
un
jour
magnifique
You
took
my
heart
and
threw
it
away
Tu
as
pris
mon
cœur
et
l'as
jeté
That′s
why
I
ask
the
Lord
in
Heaven
above
C'est
pourquoi
je
demande
au
Seigneur
dans
le
ciel
What
is
this
thing
called
love?
Qu'est-ce
que
c'est
que
cet
amour
?
You
gave
me
days
of
sunshine
Tu
m'as
donné
des
jours
ensoleillés
You
gave
me
nights
of
cheer
Tu
m'as
donné
des
nuits
de
joie
You
made
my
life
an
enchanted
dream
Tu
as
fait
de
ma
vie
un
rêve
enchanté
'Til
somebody
else
came
near
Jusqu'à
ce
que
quelqu'un
d'autre
s'approche
Somebody
else
came
near
you
Quelqu'un
d'autre
s'est
approché
de
toi
I
felt
the
winter′s
chill
J'ai
senti
le
froid
de
l'hiver
And
now
I
sit
and
wonder
night
and
day
Et
maintenant
je
suis
assise
et
je
me
demande
nuit
et
jour
Why
I
love
you
still?
Pourquoi
je
t'aime
toujours
?
