French Lyrics
Plaisir d’amour ne dure qu’un moment ;
Chagrin d’amour dure toute la vie,
J’ai tout quitté pour l’ingrate Sylvie :
Elle me quitte, et prend un autre amant.
Plaisir d’amour ne dure qu’un moment ;
Chagrin d’amour dure toute la vie.
Tant que cette eau coulera doucement
Vers ce ruisseau qui borde la prairie,
Je t’aimerai, me répétoit Sylvie :
L’eau coule encore ; elle a changé pourtant,
Plaisir d’amour ne dure qu’un moment ;
Chagrin d’amour dure toute la vie.
English Lyrics for Plasir d’amour
Chorus:
The joys of love in one short moment pass,
The pain of love all my life long will grieve me!
Fair Sylvia vowed she would never deceive me,
She chose another lover soon, alas!
Chorus
As flowing streams ever water the grass,
Shall I be true and never more deceive thee,
“I love but thee”, said Sylvia fair, “believe me.”
On flow the streams, but faithless proved the lass!
Chorus
