Je viens [bad word] un chat
 Par la nuit si noire.
 Tu attends,
 Et je tombe
 Dans tes ailes blanches, la-la-la...
 Et je vole,
 Et je coule [bad word] une plume.

 Si les grands yeux de mon Dieu
 Ne me gardaient pas,
 Je te volerais

 Ne t'enfuis pas!
 Tu as des ailes,
 Le pouvoir de me quitter.
 Tu es tombe - You fell
 Du [bad word] un ange, la-la-la
 Et j'ai peur
 Que le ciel
 Te reprenne.

 Si les grands yeux de mon Dieu
 Ne me gardaient pas,
 Je te volerais.

 Je viens [bad word] un chat
 Par la nuit si noire.

 Je t'en prie,
 Je t'en prie,
 Je t'en prie,
 Je t'en prie,
 Je t'en prie,
 Je t'en prie--
 Ne t'enfuis
 Pas!

 English Translation:
 Don't Fly Away

 I [bad word]  Like a cat
 Through the night so black.
 You are waiting,
 And I fall
 Into your white wings, la-la-la...
 And I fly,
 And I sink
 Like a feather.

 If the great eyes of my God
 Were not watching (over) me,
 I would steal you away.

 Don't fly away!
 You have wings,
 The power to leave me.
 You fell
 From the sky like an angel, la-la-la
 And I'm afraid
 That the sky
 Will take you back.

 If the great eyes of my God
 Weren't watching (over) me,
 I would steal you away.

 I [bad word]  Like a cat
 Through the night so black.

 I beg you,
 I beg you,
 I beg you,
 I beg you,
 I beg you,
 I beg you--
 Don't fly
