Les Contes d'Hoffmann / Act 2: Barcarolle
The Tales of Hoffmann / Act 2: Barcarolle
Belle nuit, ô nuit d'amour
Beautiful night, oh night of love
Souris à nos ivresses
Smile at our moments of pleasure
Nuit plus douce que le jour
Night that is sweeter than the day
Ô, belle nuit d'amour!
Oh, beautiful night of love!
Le temps fuit et sans retour
Time flees, and isn't coming back
Emporte nos tendresses
Taking our tender moments
Loin de cet heureux séjour
Far from our happy place
Le temps fuit sans retour
Time flees, never to return
Zéphyrs embrasés
Zephyrs embraced
Z-nous vos caresses
Give us your caresses
Zéphyrs embrasés
Zephyrs embraced
Donnez-nous vos baisers!
Give us your kisses!
Vos baisers! Vos baisers! Ah!
Your kisses! Your kisses! Ah!
Belle nuit, ô, nuit d'amour
Beautiful night, oh night of love
Souris à nos ivresses
Smile at our moments of pleasure
Nuit plus douce que le jour,
Night that is sweeter than the day,
Ô, belle nuit d'amour!
Oh, beautiful night of love!
Ah! souris à nos ivresses!
Ah! Smile at our moments of pleasure!
Nuit d'amour, ô, nuit d'amour!
Night of love, oh, night of love!
Ah! ah! ah! ah! ah! ah! ah! ah! ah! ah!
Ah! ah! ah! ah! ah! ah! ah! ah! ah! ah!
