about

Une autre (Fidélité) by Isaac de Camondo

The singer laments the loss of a loved one, whom even tears and time can’t return. The pain and longing will not go away, and a new love will be just like the last.

lyrics

Text by Paul Armand Silvestre

Que de jours se sont envolés
Que de soleils se sont voilés
Que de cendre et que de fumée sur les chemins et dans le vent
depuis que je m'en vais rèvant à ma dernière bien aimée
Une autre ne viendra donc pas faisant renaître sur ses pas
Les enchantements que je pleure ranimant les fleurs, les gazons
Et tendant sur les horizons
Comme un voile
L'oubli de l'heure
Mon mal n'est pas près de finir
Car de son ancien souvenir mon âme est toujours prisonnière
Celle que mon desir attend
Ah! je ne l'aimerai qu'autant qu'elle ressemble à la dernière!

How many days are gone
How many suns are veiled
How much ash and smoke on the roads and in the wind
since I've been dreaming of my last beloved
Another does not come reborn in her place
The spells that I weep, reviving the flowers, the grass,
And stretching to the horizons
Like a veil
Forgetting time
My pain is not about to end
In its memories my soul is still trapped
She that my desire awaits
Ah! I will not love again like the last one!
