| D’la pointe des cheveux | From the summit of your hair’s fine crown, |
| Jusqu’aux extrémités | Down to the farthest edges of your being, |
| À dévorer des yeux | A banquet for the gaze, a hunger barely bound, |
| En faire qu’une seule bouchée | Longing to taste you whole in one unbroken dream, |
| Pour parler sans tabou | If we may speak unshrouded, shunning fear, |
| D’un cœur lourd qui s’emballe | Of a heart—mine—weighted, yet quickened in its flight, |
| Question de goût | All is a question of savor, of desire drawn near, |
| De pulsion cannibale | Of a craving’s fever—cannibal in delight. |
| Une série d’invités | A procession of guests through my mind’s gilded hall, |
| Accueillis d’une voix douce | Welcomed with silken voice, a hush that invites, |
| Un déjeuner sur le pouce | A hurried repast, devoured in shadow’s thrall, |
| Joli à croquer | So lovely, you tempt the teeth of appetites. |
| Pour parler sans tabou | If we may speak unshrouded, shunning fear, |
| D’un cœur lourd qui s’emballe | Of a heart—mine—weighted, yet quickened in its flight, |
| Question de goût | All is a question of savor, of desire drawn near, |
| De pulsion cannibale | Of a craving’s fever—cannibal in delight. |
| Des pieds à la tête | From the soles of your feet to the crown of your head, |
| Pendu à son cou | Clasped to your neck, in yearning’s noose entwined, |
| Jusqu'à la dernière miette | Until the last sweet crumb of you is shed, |
| Consumé d’amour fou | Consumed in the wild conflagration of my mind. |
| Pour parler sans tabou | If we may speak unshrouded, shunning fear, |
| D’un cœur lourd qui s’emballe | Of a heart—mine—weighted, yet quickened in its flight, |
| Question de goût | All is a question of savor, of desire drawn near, |
| De pulsion cannibale | Of a craving’s fever—cannibal in delight. |
