Bon anniversaire [English translation]

I put on my new suit and shoes that pinch

And I am already ready for quite some time

This evening is important because it’s the anniversary

Of the day when happiness dressed you in white

But I feel you’re nervous, on the brink of anger

So I don’t say anything, better to be careful

If I said one word, your damn character

Would tell me to get lost, and we would loose time

It’s 8.15 and you’re waiting for the dress

That should have been delivered this morning at the latest

To top this off your hair flys away from the comb

All seems tied together to make us late

If all goes along this way, the evening at the theatre

And the fashionable author we can mourn as dead

Good bye play by Anouilh, by Anouilh or else by Sartre

I don’t remember very well, but I have two good seats

Happy Anniversary!

Happy Anniversary!

Your dress finally arrived and you breathe a sign of relief

Me, to save time, I help you as best I can

All seems to work out but suddenly the worst happens

The zipper stops and is stuck right in the middle

We both are unnerved, we push and then we pull

Our fingers are entangled, we try so damn hard

That with a horrible noise, the fabric tears

And I see your hopes are changed into tears

Around eleven o’clock finally you are ready

But by the time we get there, the theatre is closed

Come, come we will go have supper, just the two of us

No, no, you are downhearted, you’d rather return

Through the streets slowly we walk in silence

You smile, I kiss you and you smile again

The evening is ruined but we are lucky

Since we love each other and love is the strongest (thing).

Happy Anniversary!

Happy Anniversary!

Happy Anniversary!
