This tune is so haunting. Here the lyrics are not translated, but basically it's about passing into the later stages of life, all the fun years are behind you and what is there to show for it? Once you know the meaning, just enjoy the beautiful phonics of the lyrics and the music. Great trans-cultural song.
"he writes to the women of France, day and night, hoping they'll respond"
"what fun, what dance ... all without him"
"there is no response, but that's not so bad, as he had fun a long, long time ago"
