Je veux l'épouser pour un soir [English translation]

I want to marry her for one evening

Set her memory on fire

Wear her out* in love and disappear into the night

Like a thief, like a bandit

I want to marry her for one evening

And forget her some time later

I woud like to love a a young girl**

A hasardous fiancée

Who I would meet passing by

In a gala somewhere

I woud like to like a young girl

Who, in her sunday dress

Would defy me from the front row

With insolence's eyes

I want to marry her for one evening

Set her memory on fire

Wear her out in love and disappear into the night

Like a thief, like a bandit

I want to marry her for one evening

And forget her some time later

I would like to love a young girl

Who would ressemble me a bit

Who would bleed the same blood

Who would burn of the same fire

Oh, I would like to love a young girl

For a few hours, for the pleasure

Take her one evening from her parents

And, in my arms, see her sleep

I want to marry her for one evening

Set her memory on fire

Wear her out* in love and disappear into the night

Like a thief, like a bandit

I want to marry her for one evening

And forget her some time later

I want to marry her for one evening

And divorce some time later
