In my father's gardens,
The lilacs are in bloom;
In my father's gardens,
The lilacs are in bloom;
All the birds in the world
They come to make their nests there...

{Chorus:}
With my girlfriend,
It's good, it's good, it's good.
With my girlfriend,
How good it is to sleep!

All the birds in the world
They come to make their nests there;
All the birds in the world
They come to make their nests there;
The quail, the turtledove
And the pretty partridge.

The quail, the turtle dove
And the pretty partridge
The quail, the turtle dove
And the pretty partridge
And my pretty dove,
Who sings day and night...

And my pretty dove,
Who sings day and night
And my pretty dove,
Who sings day and night
She sings for girls
Who don't have a husband.

She sings for girls
Who don't have a husband.
She sings for girls
Who don't have a husband.
For me hardly sings,
Because I have a nice one...

For me hardly sings,
Because I have a pretty one,
For me hardly sings,
Because I have a pretty one,
“Tell me beautiful one,
Where is your husband? "

“Tell me beautiful one,
Where is your husband? "
“Tell me beautiful one,
Where is your husband? "
He is in Holland,
The Dutch took it.

What would you give, beautiful,
To have your friend? ... "

What would you give, beautiful,
To have your friend?

To have your friend?
I would give Versailles,
Paris and Saint-Denis.

I would give Versailles,
Paris and Saint-Denis,
I would give Versailles,
Paris and Saint-Denis,
The towers of Notre-Dame
And the bell tower of my country.

The towers of Notre-Dame
And the bell tower of my country,
The towers of Notre-Dame
And the bell tower of my country,
And my pretty dove,
To have my husband.
