À ma fille [English translation]

I know that a day will come when life demands

This day that I apprehend, when you will leave us

I know a day will come when sad and lonely

While supporting your mother and dragging my feet

I will come home to a deserted "home"

I will come home to where you are not.

You won't see anything of what is in my heart

Your eyes will be pierced with happiness

And I will wear a grin that you do not know

That resembles an affected smile but isn't one

While hiding my pain, proudly by your side

I will guide your steps no matter what I think or say about it

In the contemplation of a peaceful church

To give you to the man of your choise

Who will strip you of the name that is ours

To give you another one, that I don't know.

I know that a day will come when you will reach that age

When you braek lose of the cages, having found your way

I know a day will come, you will reach the blossom of age

And the daw of your life will rise

And alone with your mother, the day like the night

The summer like the winter will feel a little cold.

And he who knows nothing of the harm that is caused us

He, who won't have done anything for your maturing years

He, who will come to steal,which I am most afraid of,

A piece of our past, a piece of our happiness

This stranger without a name, without a face

Oh! How much I hate him

And yet if he is bound to make you happy

I will have no hateful thoughts towards him

But I will offer him my heart with your hand

I will do all this knowing that you love him

Simply because I love you

The day, when it comes.
