Under the Mirabeau bridge flows the Seine

Under the Mirabeau Bridge there flows the Seine

           And our love

          Must I recall

     Comes back to memory again

     Our loves recall how then

Where always joy came after pain

After each sorrow joy came back again

Comes night, the hours sound

Let night come on bells end the day

Days go round in which to drown

The days go by me still I stay

Hand in hand, face to face

Hands joined and face to face let's stay just so

          While underneath

          While underneath

     The bridge of our embrace

     The bridge of our arms shall go

Eternal gazes, weary waves

Weary of endless looks the river's flow

Comes night, the hours sound

Let night come on bells end the day

Days go round in which to drown

The days go by me still I stay

Love goes away like the water flows

All love goes by as water to the sea

          Love goes away

          All love goes by

     Like life is slow

     How slow life seems to me

And like Hopefulness is violent

How violent the hope of love can be

Comes night, the hours sound

Let night come on bells end the day

Days go round in which to drown

The days go by me still I stay

Pass the days, pass the nights

The days the weeks pass by beyond our ken

          Neither time past

          Neither time past

     Nor love comes back

     Nor love comes back again

Under the Mirabeau bridge flows the Seine

Under the Mirabeau Bridge there flows the Seine

Comes night, the hours sound

Let night come on bells end the day

Days go round in which to drown

The days go by me still I stay
