Il est minuit, jolie banquise
It's midnight, pretty ice floe
Il est minuit, petit glaçon
It's midnight, little ice cube
Il est minuit, mon impromise
It's midnight, my improvisation
Il est minuit, à vos salons
It's midnight, in your living rooms
Il est minuit, jolie marquise
It's midnight, pretty marquise
Vous êtes si belle, sans votre chemise
You look so beautiful without your shirt
Il est minuit, petit petons
It's midnight, little tootsies
Il est minuit, mon incomprise
It's midnight, my misunderstood
Il est minuit, a vos balcons
It's midnight, on your balconies
De vos deux lunes, jolie banquise
Of your two moons, pretty ice floe
Vous êtes si froide, vous si lointaine
You are so cold, you so distant
Moi je me traîne
I drag myself
Comme une âme en peine
Like a lost soul
Et moi je me traîne
And I drag myself
Comme une âme en peine
Like a lost soul
Ma tonkiki, ma tonkinoise
My tonkiki, my tonkinese
À vos glaciaires, je me crapule
To your glaciers, I'm sorry
Jolie marquise, vos longs hivers
Pretty marquise, your long winters
Vous si exquise, vous si hautaine
You so exquisite, you so haughty
Je me démène dans l'incendie
I struggle in the fire
Vous êtes si chaude, vos seins me glacent
You're so hot, your tits are freezing me
Vous êtes si belle dans le lointain
You are so beautiful in the distance
La bas au loin ainsi soit il
Down there in the distance so be it
La bas au loin
Down there in the distance
Éteins l'abat-jour
Turn off the lampshade
Mon amour
My love
