PLAISIR D'AMOUR (Adapted)
Plaisir d’amour ne dure qu’un moment
Chagrin d’amour dure toute la vie
Tu m’as quittée pour la belle Sylvie
Elle t'a quitté pour un autre amant
Plaisir d’amour ne dure qu’un moment
Chagrin d’amour dure toute la vie
The Pleasures of love last but a moment
The Pains of love can endure your whole life through
You left me for la belle Sylvie
Then she left you for another
Who by chance came along
The Pleasures of love last but a moment.
The Pains of love can last your whole life long
Plaisir d’amour ne dure qu’un moment,
Chagrin d’amour dure toute la vie.
Written in 1784, Jean-Paul-Égide Martini. Wikipedia Entry
A version by Joan Baez
