|---|---|
| Je crois entendre encore | I think I still hear |
| Cache sous les palmiers | Hide under the palm trees |
| Sa voix tendre et sonore | Her tender and sonorous voice |
| Comme un chant de ramiers. | Like a song of woodpigeons. |
| Oh nuit enchanteresse | Oh enchanting night |
| Divin ravissement | divine rapture |
| Oh souvenir charmant, | Oh lovely memory, |
| Folle ivresse, doux reve! | Mad drunkenness, sweet dream! |
| Aux clartes des etoiles | In starlight |
| Je crois encor la voir | I still think I see her |
| Entr’ouvrir ses longs voiles | Partially open its long sails |
| Aux vents tiedes du soir. | To the warm evening winds. |
| Oh nuit enchanteresse | Oh enchanting night |
| Divin ravissement | divine rapture |
| Oh souvenir charmant | Oh lovely memory |
| Folle ivresse, doux reve! | Mad drunkenness, sweet dream! |
| Charmant Souvenir! | Charming memory! |
| Charmant Souvenir! | Charming memory! |
