Lyrics of Ah ! dites, dites. - Marie Laforêt

Ah ! dites, dites. (original)

Ah Dites Dites que je ne rêve pas.
Ah Dites Dites qu’il est venu pour moi.
Tout vient si vite et si vite s’en va.
Ah Dites Dites qu’il ne s’en ira pas.
Mon coeur me quitte: il fait ses premiers pas.
Mais c’est la suite que je ne connais pas.
Si je mérite ce qui m’arrive là,
Ah Dites Dites qu’il ne s’en ira pas.
Ah Dites Dites ce bonheur est à moi.
Je vais bien vite le crier sur les toits.
L’amour m’invite et je dis «oui"déjà.
Ah Dites Dites moi qui n’y croyais pas!
Je me demande s’il ne pleurerait pas.
La peine est grande quand si grande est la joie.
Oui, c’est la suite que je ne connais pas,
Mais dites dites, vous feriez comme moi.

(translation)

Ah Say Say I'm not dreaming.
Ah Say Say he came for me.
Everything comes so quickly and so quickly goes.
Ah Say Say he won't go away.
My heart leaves me: it takes its first steps.
But it's the sequel that I don't know.
If I deserve what's happening to me here,
Ah Say Say he won't go away.
Ah Say Say this happiness is mine.
I'll soon be shouting it from the rooftops.
Love invites me and I say "yes" already.
Ah Tell Tell me who didn't believe it!
I wonder if he wouldn't cry.
The sorrow is great when so great is the joy.
Yes, it's the sequel that I don't know,
But say say, you would do like me.
