Prévert, Jacques: Sunday (Dimanche in English)

Portre of Prévert, Jacques

Dimanche (French)

Entre les rangées d'arbres de l'avenue des Gobelins

Une statue de marbre me conduit par la main

Aujourd'hui c'est dimanche les cinémas sont pleins

Les oiseaux dans les branches regardent les humains

Et la statue m'embrasse mais personne ne nous voit

Sauf un enfant aveugle qui nous montre du doigt.

Sunday (English)

Between the rows of trees on l’Avenue des Gobelins

A marble statue takes me by the hand

Today is Sunday the cinemas are full

The birds in the branches watch the humans

And the statue kisses me but no one sees us

Except for a blind child who points at us.
