Lyrics	Direct Translation	Poetic Translation
Bonjour mon coeur, bonjour ma douce vie	Hello, my heart; hello, my sweet life.	Hello, my heart! Hello, my life, my sweetness!
Bonjour mon oeil, bonjour ma chère amie!	Hello, my eye; hello, my dear friend!	Hello, my friend! Hello, my world’s completeness!
Hé! Bonjour ma tourterelle,	Hey! Hello my turtledove,	Hey! Hello, my dove, my pebble!
Hé! Bonjour ma toute belle,	Hey! Hello my beautiful everything,	Hey! Hello, my all, my special,
Ma mignardise, bonjour	My sweetheart; hello,	My cutest honey. Hello,
Mes délices, mon amour,	My delights, my love,	Pleasure whom I cherish so,
Mon doux printemps, ma douce fleur nouvelle,	My sweet spring, my sweet new flower,	My breeze of spring, my tender, fragrant petal,
Mon doux plaisir, ma douce colombelle,	My sweet pleasure, my sweet dove,	My sugar dove, the joy in whom I revel,
Mon passereau, ma gente tourterelle!	My sparrow, my gentle turtledove!	My sparrow chick, my turtledove, my pebble!
Bonjour ma douce rebelle.	Hello, my sweet rebel.	Hello, my sweet little rebel.
