[VERSE:]
[COUPLET:]
I was a stranger in the city.
J'étais un étranger dans la ville.
Out of town were the people I knew.
Les gens que je connaissais étaient hors de la ville.
I had that feeling of self-pity:
J'avais ce sentiment d'apitoiement sur moi-même :
What to do? What to do? What to do?
Que faire ? Que faire ? Que faire ?
The outlook was decidedly blue.
Les perspectives étaient décidément sombres.
But as I walked through the foggy streets alone,
Mais alors que je marchais seul dans les rues brumeuses,
It turned out to be the luckiest day I've known
Ce fut le jour le plus chanceux de ma vie.
[REFRAIN:]
[REFRAIN:]
A Foggy Day in London Town
Un jour brumeux à Londres
Had me low and had me down.
M'avait abattu et déprimé.
I viewed the morning with alarm.
J'envisageais le matin avec inquiétude.
The British Museum had lost its charm.
Le British Museum avait perdu son charme.
How long, I wondered, could this thing last?
Combien de temps, je me demandais, cela pouvait-il durer ?
But the age of miracles, hadn't passed,
Mais l'âge des miracles n'était pas passé,
For, suddenly, I saw you there --
Car, soudain, je t'ai vu --
And through foggy London Town
Et à travers Londres brumeuse
The sun was shining ev'rywhere.
Le soleil brillait partout.
