En la evocación
vuelve a soñar
mi corazón,
y el sueño eres tú, Marión...
Amor de mi juventud
que no se olvida.
Amor que llena de luz
toda mi vida.
Sombras del ayer,
con su tristeza de canción
siempre me dirán: Marión...
In memory
my heart
dreams again,
and the dream is you, Marión...
Youthful love
that one never forgets.
Love that fills
my whole life with light.
Shadows of yesterday
with its sadness of song
will always say to me: Marión....
Marión,
sé que a tu lado fui feliz
cuando te di mi corazón
en el viejo París.
Recuerdo
la angustia del adiós
y el cielo
llorando por los dos...
Marión,
amor lejano que dejé,
quiero que sepas, corazón,
que jamás te olvidé.
Marión,
I know I was happy at your side
when I gave my heart to you
in old Paris.
I remember the anguish of our goodbye
and the sky
crying for us both...
Marión,
distant love I left behind,
I want you to know, dearest,
that I never forgot you.
Sueño de París
que se enredó con la emoción
de tu amor sin fin, Marión...
Hoy sólo queda el albor
de tu fragancia
y el perfumado rumor
de la distancia.
Sombras del ayer,
con tono gris de evocación
siempre me dirán: Marión.
Dream of Paris
merged with the feeling
of your undying love, Marión...
Today all that remains is the dawn
of your fragrance
and the perfumed rumor
of the distance between us.
Shadows of yesterday
with gray tone of memory
will always say to me: Marión.
