| Katharina (original) | Katharina (translation) |
|---|---|
| N’ai-je vécu | Haven't I lived |
| Que pour te faire | What to do to you |
| Souhaiter la mort | wish death |
| Que pour tout dire | What to say |
| À demi-mot | Without having to spell things out |
| N’ai-je que déçu | Did I only disappoint |
| Quand j’apprenais | When I was learning |
| À devenir un homme | To become a man |
| Toujours en croquant | Always crunching |
| Dans la pomme | In the apple |
| J'étais à la mer | I was at sea |
| Pendant que tu pleurais l’enfant | While you cried the child |
| Qui gisait dans la toilette | Who was lying in the toilet |
| Quand tu m’as dit | When you told me |
| Que jamais je ne pourrais te comprendre | That I could never understand you |
| Que le bonheur est plus loin | That happiness is further away |
| Qu’on pense | What we think |
| Je ne parlerai plus | I will speak no more |
