Le ciel est transi
Language: French (Français)
Our translations: ENG ITA
Le ciel est transi.
Sur la terre nue
La neige est venue.
Sur mon cœur aussi.
Dans l'air obscurci
Les feuilles dernières
Roulent aux ornières.
Mon bonheur aussi.
Il fait froid ici.
Les cailles, les grives,
Ont quitté nos rives.
Ma maîtresse aussi.

Giorno d'inverno
Language: Italian (Italiano) after the French (Français)
Il cielo è rabbrividito.
Sulla terra nuda
La neve è caduta.
Sul mio cuore pure
Nell'aria oscurata
Le ultime foglie
Rotolano sui solchi delle vie
La mia buona sorte pure
Fa freddo qui.
Quaglie e tordi
Hanno abbandonato le nostre terre.
La mia amante pure.
