Lyrics[]
Jeg ble din venn, og hvisket "chéri"
Hele ditt svar var "sí, sí"
Dønninger slår mot land, solen i brann
Sommer ved Palmas strand
Si "mon amour", bli mon amour
Ser du palmene bever, havfugler svever
Alt i skjønn harmoni?
Si "mon amour", bli mon amour
Hør gitarene spiller vår melodi
Nattens bønn: kom til meg, chéri
Kan ei ditt språk, det er som musikk
Men jeg forstår dine blikk
La meg da nok en gang høre dets klang
Lytte til sydens sang
Si "mon amour", bli mon amour
Ser du palmene bever, havfugler svever
Alt i skjønn harmoni?
Bli mon amour, si "mon amour"
Hør gitarene spiller vår melodi
Nattens bønn: kom til meg, chéri
I became your friend and whispered "Cherí"
All you answered were "Sí, sí"
Waves crash to the shore, the sun on fire
Summer at Palma's beaches
Say "Mon amour", be mon amour
Can you see the palm trees swaying, the sea birds playing
In sweet harmony?
Say "Mon amour", be mon amour
Hear the guitars play our melody
The prayer of the night: Come to me, Chéri
I don't speak your language, it is like music
But I understand the look in your eyes
Then let me once morе hear its sound
Listening to the Southеrn song
Say "Mon amour", be mon amour
Can you see the palm trees swaying, the sea birds playing
In sweet harmony?
You might also like
Be mon amour, say "Mon amour"
Hear the guitars play our melody
The prayer of the night: Come to me, Chéri
