Lyrics of India Song - Jeanne Moreau

India Song (original)

Chanson,
Toi qui ne veux rien dire
Toi qui me parle d’elle
Et toi qui me dit tout
Chanson,
Que nous dansions ensemble
Toi qui m’a parléd'elle
D’elle qui te chantait
D’elle, de son nom oublié
De son corps et mon corps
De cet amour là
De cet amour mort
Chanson,
De ma terre lointaine
Toi qui parleras d’elle
Maintenant disparue
D’elle, de son nom oublié
De son corps et mon corps
De cet amour là
De cet amour mort
Chanson,
Toi qui ne veux rien dire
Toi qui me parle d’elle
Et toi qui me dit tout
Chanson,
Toi qui ne veux rien dire
Toi qui me parle d’elle
Et toi qui me dit tout

(translation)

Song,
You who mean nothing
You who talk to me about her
And you who tell me everything
Song,
That we dance together
You who told me about her
Of her singing to you
Of her, of her forgotten name
Of his body and my body
Of that love
Of this dead love
Song,
From my distant land
You who will talk about her
Now gone
Of her, of her forgotten name
Of his body and my body
Of that love
Of this dead love
Song,
You who mean nothing
You who talk to me about her
And you who tell me everything
Song,
You who mean nothing
You who talk to me about her
And you who tell me everything
