Cheveux en arrière

Hair back

Col boutonné haut

C'est moins pour l'allure que pour cacher l'éraflure, suis-je laid ou beau

It's less for appearance than to hide the scratch, am I ugly or beautiful

Le corps rien à faire

The body nothing to do

Immobile fléau

Il n'y a qu'une humeur, qu'un amour et sa douleur qui marque la peau

There is only one mood, only one love and its pain which marks the skin

Depuis longtemps j'ai porté

Il pousse un grain de beauté

He grows a mole
