Мануэль - когда улетают журавли :
Elle m'a dit "Pense à moi
Quand passent les cigognes"
J'entends encore sa voix
Qui pleure et qui s'éloigne
Nous nous sommes aimés
D'un grand amour tendre et fou
Les gens qui nous voyaient
Étaient si jaloux de nous
{x2}
Et puis tu es partie
Tu n'es plus revenue
Les jours passent et les nuits
Et je flâne dans les rues
Les cigognes repassent
Et mon cœur perd tout espoir
Même les fleurs des champs
Pleurent aussi mon désespoir
- English lyrics :
She said : Think of me
When the storks pass
I still hear her voice
Who weeps and walks away
We loved each other
With a great tender and crazy love
People who saw us
Were so jealous of us
And then you left
You're not back
Days pass and nights
And I stroll in the streets
The storks pass again
And my heart loses all hope
Even the flowers of the fields
Also grow my despair
- Arabic translation
قالت لي اذكرني
عندما تمر طيور اللقالق
و مازلت اسمع صوتها
و بكاءها وهي ترحل
احببنا بعضنا البعض
كان حب عظيم ومجنون
والناس الذين رأونا
كانوا يحسدوننا على حبنا
ثم ذهبتي و لم تعودي
و مرت الايام والليالي
وانا اتسكع في الشوارع
طيور اللقالق عادت مره اخرى
و قلبي يفقد كل أمل
حتى الزهور البريه
تبكي بأسى معي
