Septembre (Quel Joli Temps)

Never had the end of summer seemed so beautiful
The vines of the year will have beautiful grapes
We see the swallows gathering already
But we must part, yet we loved each other well
What a lovely time to say goodbye
What a lovely evening to relive one's twenties
On the smoke of cigarettes
Love goes away, my heart stops
What a lovely time to say goodbye
What a lovely evening to relive one's twenties

The flowers already bear the colors of September
And from afar, we hear the boats announcing themselves
Beautiful time for a sorrow, this amber-colored time
I stay on the dock, my love, see you soon
What a lovely time, my love, goodbye
What a lovely time to relive those twenties
On the smoke of cigarettes
Love may come back to us
Maybe one evening, at the turn of a spring
Ah, what a lovely time, the time to meet again

Never will the flowers of May have seemed so beautiful
The vines of the year will have beautiful grapes
When you come back to me, with the swallows
Because you will come back to me, my love, tomorrow
