Lyrics and translation Patti Smith - Looking For You (I Was) - Digitally Remastered, 1996
In
the
medieval
night
Dans
la
nuit
médiévale
'Twas
love's
design
C'était
le
dessein
de
l'amour
And
the
sky
was
open
Et
le
ciel
était
ouvert
Like
a
Valentine
Comme
une
Saint-Valentin
All
the
lacy
lights
Toutes
les
lumières
de
dentelle
Where
wishes
fall
Où
les
souhaits
tombent
And
like
Shakespeare's
child
Et
comme
l'enfant
de
Shakespeare
I
wished
on
them
all
J'ai
fait
un
vœu
sur
elles
tous
Ahh
to
be
your
destiny
Ahh
être
ta
destinée
Was
all
that
I
pursued
C'était
tout
ce
que
je
recherchais
I
could
see
the
sights
Je
pouvais
voir
les
vues
From
the
lofty
heights
Des
plus
hauts
sommets
But
my
heart
obscured
the
view
Mais
mon
cœur
obscurcissait
la
vue
I
was
looking
for
you
Je
te
cherchais
Looking
for
you
Te
cherchais
What
could
I
do
Que
pouvais-je
faire
I
was
looking
for
you
Je
te
cherchais
Along
the
black
river
Le
long
de
la
rivière
noire
The
ambassador
jewels
Les
joyaux
de
l'ambassadeur
And
you
were
reflected
Et
tu
étais
reflété
In
all
that
I
saw
Dans
tout
ce
que
je
voyais
In
the
towers
of
gold
Dans
les
tours
d'or
In
the
wheel
and
wing
Dans
la
roue
et
l'aile
Gripping
my
senses
Saisissant
mes
sens
Like
an
ancient
claim
Comme
une
ancienne
revendication
Many
is
the
time
I
knelt
in
the
light
Nombreuses
sont
les
fois
où
je
me
suis
agenouillé
dans
la
lumière
Appealing
to
all
that
I
know
Faisant
appel
à
tout
ce
que
je
sais
Guide
my
eyes
and
steps
Guide
mes
yeux
et
mes
pas
That
I
may
find
love
true
Afin
que
je
puisse
trouver
le
véritable
amour
I
was
looking
for
you
Je
te
cherchais
Looking
for
you
Te
cherchais
What
could
I
do
Que
pouvais-je
faire
I
was
looking
for
you
Je
te
cherchais
Come
on
darlin'
Viens
mon
chéri
All
that
hearts
desire
Tout
ce
que
le
cœur
désire
Was
written
before
us
Était
écrit
avant
nous
In
the
medieval
fire
Dans
le
feu
médiéval
It
was
love's
design
C'était
le
dessein
de
l'amour
In
the
glittering
stars
Dans
les
étoiles
scintillantes
Like
Shakespeare's
child
Comme
l'enfant
de
Shakespeare
To
be
where
you
are
Être
là
où
tu
es
From
the
Portobello
Road
De
Portobello
Road
To
the
Port
of
Marseilles
Au
port
de
Marseille
Where
the
dervish
turns
Où
le
derviche
tourne
Where
the
wild
goats
play
Où
les
chèvres
sauvages
jouent
Looking
for
you
Je
te
cherchais
I
was
Je
l'étais
