L'amour Est Un Oiseau Rebelle
Maria Callas
Love is a rebellious bird
Love is a rebellious bird
That no one can tame
And it's in vain that we call it
If it suits it to refuse
Nothing works, threats or prayers
One speaks well, the other is silent
And it's the other one that I prefer
He said nothing but I like him
Love! Love! Love! Love!
Love is a child of Bohemia
It has never, never known any law
If you don't love me, I love you
If I love you, beware!
If you don't love me
If you don't love me, I love you!
But if I love you
If I love you, beware!
The bird you thought to surprise
Flapped its wings and flew away
Love is far, you can wait for it
You no longer wait, it is here!
All around you, quickly, quickly
It comes, goes, then it returns
You think you have it, it avoids you
You think you avoid it, it holds you
Love! Love! Love! Love!
Love is a child of Bohemia
It has never, never known any law
If you don't love me, I love you
If I love you, beware!
If you don't love me
If you don't love me, I love you!
But if I love you
If I love you, beware!
