La lettre [English translation]

I received a letter

Perhaps a month ago

It arrived by mistake

Postman blunder

It was sprayed with perfume

Adorned with red lipstick

Maybe this letter

I should not have opened

But I am a man

Who likes this kind of stakes

She may call me

Alphonse or Fred just as she likes

As she likes

Some pretty daisies

To dot her "i"s

Cursive writing

Like in the abbeys

Some misspellings

A slight dyslexia

And in the way of signature

“The sexy little blonde”

And I am a man

Who likes this kind of game

I don't like nuns

And I fell in love with her

In love

She's writing that on Sunday

She will be on the cliff

Where I took her by the hips

And if hypothetically

I would not have the tact

To own up to my passion

She will choose the impact

Thirty meters below

And I am a man

Who likes this kind of stakes

I don't want her to knock herself out

Because I fell in love with her

In love

Thanks to the postmark

From a town near the Channel

I was at the right outpost

On the Sunday morning

The place was deserted

I have to be patient

Suicidal blondes

There can't be that many

And I am a man

Who likes this kind of stakes

I will beat Newton

Because I fell in love with her

In love

She was looking down on the Channel

When I recognized her

I took by the sleeve

My naive little girl

Who wasn't so naive

Judging by the profile

That a little inhabitant

Was making in her belly

And I am a man

Who likes this kind of stakes

He may call me

“Dad” if he likes to

If he likes to
