I came to tell you that I'm going away

I came to tell you that I'm going away
And your tears won't change anything.
As Verlaine said so well in "au vent mauvais"
I came to tell you that I'm going away.
 
You are remembering the old days but now you are crying
Suffocating, becoming pale, now when it's time
Of farewell forever.
Yeah, I'm regretting
For telling you I'm going away.
Yes, I loved you, yes, but
 
I came to tell you that I'm going away.
Your long sobs won't be able to change anything.
As Verlaine said so well in "au vent mauvais"
I came to tell you that I'm going away.
 
You are remembering the old days but now you are crying
Suffocating, becoming pale, now when it's time
Of farewell forever.
Yeah, I'm regretting
For telling you I'm going away.
Because what you did against me is too much.
 
I came to tell you that I'm going away
And your tears won't change anything.
As Verlaine said so well in "au vent mauvais"
I came to tell you that I'm going away.
 
You are remembering the old days but now you are crying
Suffocating, becoming pale, now when it's time
Of farewell forever.
Yeah, I'm regretting
For telling you I'm going away.
Yeah, I loved you, yeah, but
 
I came to tell you that I'm going away
And your tears won't change anything.
As Verlaine said so well in "au vent mauvais"
I came to tell you that I'm going away.
 
You are remembering the old days but now you are crying
Suffocating, becoming pale, now when it's time
Of farewell forever.
Yeah, I'm regretting
For telling you I'm going away.
Because what you did against me is too much.

Hi Alain [@alain.chevalier] Ça va?
I think "in" in
- As Verlaine said so well in "under a bad wind"
is wrong. The whole "au vent mauvais" is a quote from Verlaine's "Chanson d'automne"

Hello !
I think you are right not to translate "au vent mauvais"
