La femme de mon ami [English translation]

I know why you cried

And sadly, looked at me

I can take you in my arms

To kiss your red eyes

But me, I don't have the right

You're my friend's wife

I know why you want to leave

To me you can't lie

I can take you in my arms

And tear you away from this life

But, I do not have the right

You are my friend's wife

I feel my heart all torn

Between love and friendship

That I can not decide

I know why you left

That who did not know how to love you

And I let you go

In search of your life

In me I have only one memory

You are my friend's wife

I know why you want to sing

And why you looked at me

I can take you in my arms

Because today I have the right

You have always been for me

The true face of love

Yet we will never live

At the heart of the same song

At the heart of the same house

I would like you to understand

That if I love you you are also

For me, the wife of my friend, of my friend.
