La Valse à Mille Temps (Waltz in Thousand Time - English translation)

In the first stage of the waltz
All alone, you smile again.
In the first stage of the waltz
I'm alone but I catch sight of you
And Paris which beats each measure
Paris which measures our excitement
And Paris which beats each measure
Whispers to me, whispers very low
A waltz in triple time
Which presents again the time
Which presents again the time
To present the turns
In the direction of love
Charming as it is.
A waltz in quadruple time
It's much less dancing
It's much less dancing
But just as charming
As a waltz in triple time
A waltz in quadruple time,
A waltz when you're twenty
It's much more arousing
It's much more arousing
But much more charming
Than a waltz in triple time
A waltz when you're twenty
A waltz in hundred time
A waltz when you're a hundred
A waltz that is heard
At each intersection
In Paris which love
Renews in springtime.
A waltz in thousand time
A waltz in thousand time
A waltz took the time
To wait twenty years
For you to be twenty
And for me to be twenty
A waltz in thousand time
A waltz in thousand time
A waltz in thousand time
Offers to lovers alone
Three hundred thirty-three times the time
To build a romance.
In the second stage of the waltz,
We are two, you're in my arms
In the second stage of the waltz
We both count one-two-three
And Paris which beats each measure
Paris which measures our excitement
And Paris which beats each measure
Hums to us, hums again
A waltz in triple time
Which presents again the time
Which presents again the time
To present the turns
In the direction of love
Charming as it is.
A waltz in quadruple time
It's much less dancing
It's much less dancing
But just as charming
As a waltz in triple time
A waltz in quadruple time,
A waltz when you're twenty
It's much more arousing
It's much more arousing
But much more charming
Than a waltz in triple time
A waltz when you're twenty
A waltz in hundred time
A waltz when you're a hundred
A waltz that is heard
At each intersection
In Paris which love
Renews in springtime.
A waltz in thousand time
A waltz in thousand time
A waltz took the time
To wait twenty years
For you to be twenty
And for me to be twenty
A waltz in thousand time
A waltz in thousand time
A waltz in thousand time
Offers to lovers alone
Three hundred thirty-three times the time
To build a romance.
In the third stage of the waltz
We finally waltz, everyone!
In the third stage of the waltz
There's you and there's love and there's me
And Paris which beats each measure
Paris which measures our excitement
And Paris which beats each measure
Lets her joy finally burst!
A waltz in triple time
Which presents again the time
Which presents again the time
To present the turns
In the direction of love
Charming as it is.
A waltz in quadruple time
It's much less dancing
It's much less dancing
But just as charming
As a waltz in triple time
A waltz in quadruple time,
A waltz when you're twenty
It's much more arousing
It's much more arousing
But much more charming
Than a waltz in triple time
A waltz when you're twenty
A waltz in hundred time
A waltz when you're a hundred
A waltz that is heard
At each intersection
In Paris which love
Renews in springtime.
A waltz in thousand time
A waltz in thousand time

To wait twenty years
For you to be twenty
And for me to be twenty
A waltz in thousand time

Offers to lovers alone
Three hundred thirty-three times the time
To build a romance.
