Non, je t'en prie ! Tu es à moi ! Tes amis t'attendent…
Gia mi mandi via? Vorrei dir... ma non osso,
Tu me renvoies déjà ? Je voudrais dire… mais je ne peux pas,
Di. Se venissi con voi? Che? Mimi!
Dis, si je venais avec vous ? Quoi ? Mimi !
Sarebbe cosi dolce restar qui. C'e freddo fuori.v
Ce serait si doux de rester ici. Il fait froid dehors.v
Vi staro vicina! E al ritorno? Curioso!
Je serai près de toi ! Et au retour ? Qui sait ?
Dammi il braccio, o mia piccina...
Prends mon bras, ma petite … Comme tu dis, mon cher …
Obbedisco, signor! Che m'ami... di'...lo t'amo.
Tu m'aimes, dis-le ! Je t'aime bien.
