Prévert, Jacques: Paris At Night (Paris de Nuit in English)

Portre of Prévert, Jacques

Paris de Nuit (French)

Trois allumettes une à une allumées dans la nuit

La premiére pour voir ton visage tout entier

La seconde pour voir tes yeux

La dernière pour voir ta bouche

Et l'obscuritè tout entière pour me rappeler tout cela

En te serrant dans mes bras.

Paris At Night (English)

Three matches lit one by one in the night

The first to see your face in its entirety

The second to see your eyes

The last to see your mouth

And the darkness all around to remind me of all of them

As I take you in my arms.
