French	English
J’avais dessiné sur le sable	I had drawn on the sand
Son doux visage qui me souriait	Her sweet face that smiled at me
Puis il a plu sur cette plage	Then it rained on this beach
Dans cet orage, elle a disparu	In this storm, she disappeared
Et j’ai crié, crié : “Aline !”, pour qu’elle revienne	And I cried, cried: “Aline!”, for her to return
Et j’ai pleuré, pleuré, oh ! j’avais trop de peine	And I cried, cried, oh! I had too much pain
Je me suis assis auprès de son âme	I sat beside her soul
Mais la belle dame s’était enfuie	But the beautiful lady had fled
Je l’ai cherchée sans plus y croire	I searched for her without believing anymore
Et sans un espoir, pour me guider	And without hope, to guide me
Et j’ai crié, crié : “Aline !”, pour qu’elle revienne	And I cried, cried: “Aline!”, for her to return
Et j’ai pleuré, pleuré, oh ! j’avais trop de peine	And I cried, cried, oh! I had too much pain
Je n’ai gardé que ce doux visage	I kept only that sweet face
Comme une épave sur le sable mouillé	Like a wreck on the wet sand
Et j’ai crié, crié : “Aline !”, pour qu’elle revienne	And I cried, cried: “Aline!”, for her to return
Et j’ai pleuré, pleuré, oh ! j’avais trop de peine	And I cried, cried, oh! I had too much pain
Et j’ai crié, crié : “Aline !”, pour qu’elle revienne	And I cried, cried: “Aline!”, for her to return
Et j’ai pleuré, pleuré, oh ! j’avais trop de peine	And I cried, cried, oh! I had too much pain
