Here is the city 
That I told you about 
Lying immobile, as it was
From here you can see,
From the hill,
The panorama, 
At night, the factories.
Here is the city,
Antique dealers and prefects, 
The obedient bourgeoisie,
The Rouen pharmacists,
From here you can see
The signs, the displays, 
The Seine below,
At night, the factories.
Here is the city 
Where I was searching for 
The eyes of the girls, 
A protective coating defeated. 
From here one sees
A party that is ending 
The antennas on the roofs 
At night, the factories.
From here one sees 
The lovers, the peninsula 
And my life in front of you. 
Here is my city.
