Si Tu Vois Ma Mère
Sidney Bechet
If You See My Mother
When I think of you
Immediately I see
I don't know why
The flowery balcony
Where you smiled at me
When I left
Remember
Since that time I travel
And on all
The roads
Forever your sweet face
That a dream touches
Remains
Because the fleeting time
In the wind of oblivion
Will pass silently
Without erasing anything
Mom, you know
Nothing can break
The past
I will remember
Your eyes until my last day
Mom, my dearest love
