Mon âme en est triste à la fin ;
Elle est triste enfin d’être lasse,
Elle est lasse enfin d’être en vain,
Elle est triste et lasse à la fin
Et j’attends vos mains sur ma face.
— A man is born on earth for a short time. But he is overcome with sorrow. Only a clown is happy, no matter what happens. Do you know why?
— Why?
— Because whatever a joker does, he does it for others.
Best Grief is Tongueless — before He'll tell -
Burn Him in the Public Square -
His Ashes — will
Possibly — if they refuse — How then know -
Since a Rack couldn't coax a syllable — now.
Lady Blue, love me too, lady Blue,
Only love can save me. Rescue me from loneliness,
Save me with your sweetcaress.
Lady Blue, don't be cruel.
Here I stand, a loving fool, Waiting for the paradise,
Promised by, by your blue eyes.
