Translation of the song lyrics La chanson de Delphine - Clara Luciani, Vladimir Cauchemar

La chanson de Delphine (original)

Je ne sais rien de lui et pourtant, je le vois
Son nom m’est familier et je connais sa voix
Souvent dans mon sommeil, je croise son visage
Son regard et l’amour ne font plus qu’une image
Il a cette beauté des hommes romantiques
Du divin Raphaël, le talent imité
Une philosophie d’esprit démocratique
Et du poète enfin la rime illimitée
Je pourrais te parler de ses yeux, de ses mains
Je pourrais te parler de lui jusqu'à demain
Son amour, c’est ma vie mais à quoi bon rêver?
L’illusion de l’amour n’est pas l’amour trouvé
Est-il près?
Est-il loin?
Est-il à Rochefort?
Je le rencontrerai car je sais qu’il existe
Bien plus que la raison, le cœur est le plus fort
À son ordre, à sa loi, personne ne résiste
Je n’y résisterai pas

La chanson de Delphine (translation)

I don't know anything about him and yet I see him
His name is familiar to me and I know his voice
Often in my sleep I meet her face
His gaze and love become one image
He's got that beauty of romantic men
Of the divine Raphael, the talent imitated
A philosophy of democratic spirit
And from the poet finally the unlimited rhyme
I could tell you about her eyes, her hands
I could tell you about him until tomorrow
His love is my life but what's the use of dreaming?
The illusion of love is not love found
Is it near?
Is it far?
Is he in Rochefort?
I will meet him because I know he exists
More than reason, the heart is the strongest
At his command, at his law, no one resists
I won't resist it
