Текст и перевод песни Serge Reggiani - L'Hotel Des Rendez-Moi Ca

L'Hotel Des Rendez-Moi Ca

Quand elle s′approcha de lui
Langoureuse fille de nuit
Elle tendit les bras et dit
"Tu viens chéri?"

Ils marchaient sur les boulevards
Les gens les croisaient sans les voir
Amants d'un soir, amants perdus
Au gré des rues

A l′hôtel du rendez-moi-ça
Une chambre on leur loua
Un p'tit moment ou toute la nuit
C'est le même prix

Elle monta devant, lui derrière
Cinq étages et pas de lumière
La chambre, la chaise puis le lit
Un paradis

Alors elle lui a dit tout bas:
"Rends-moi tout ça, rends-moi tout ça"
Et lui sans larmes lui rendit
Toute sa vie

Il rendit ses décorations
Sa montre, sa bonne réputation
Son carnet d′chèques, ses souvenirs
Sans un soupir

Rendit l′amour de ses quinze ans
La petite fille aux gants blancs
Le ballon rouge dans le ciel bleu
Les jours heureux

Et quand il fut nu comme un ver
Sans mémoire et sans pullover
La dame tendrement lui a dit:
"Bonsoir chéri!"

Et l'homme s′est endormi.

The Hotel of Give Me Backs

When she approached him,
A sultry girl of the night
She extended her arms and said,
"Will you come, darling?"

They walked along the boulevards
People passed them without noticing
Lovers for a night, lost lovers,
At the mercy of the streets

At the hotel of the Give Me Backs,
They were rented a room
For a little while or for all night,
It is the same price

She went up first, he followed
Five floors and no light
A room, a chair, and a bed,
A paradise

Then she said to him softly:
"Give me all that back, give me all that back"
And he, without tears, gave her,
His whole life

He gave back his medals,
His watch, his good reputation,
His checkbook, his memories.
Without a sigh

He gave back the love of his fifteen years,
The little girl with white gloves,
The red balloon in the blue sky,
The happy days

And when he was naked as a worm,
Without memory and without a sweater,
The lady tenderly said to him:
"Good night, darling!"

And the man fell asleep.
