Little Elf
In the evening, a little freezing elf came,
he said, for a moment.
A month passed soon and the beloved little elf
fell into my heart like no-one else.
Silent like a student, he started va banque,
je t'aime all the time, in stars, like Lem.
No place for bon ton, voyager of senses,
caressed me up to the peak of dreams.
A little innocent elf was waking me up at night
and asking: is it dream or not?
He liked to promise that it's forever, the little elf,
the forever didn't mean anything.
Everything he wanted, he had with me:
both vinaigrette and the Pigalle square,
both variétés and the cool three quarters,
regret has left, the sad dell'arte.
Maybe it's rain, maybe it's tear.
You ask how it is? Comme çi, comme ça.
He said it's an error, that he is bored,
the door was open, so s'il vous plaît.
He went out in the evening, my bored little elf,
I'm waiting, probably I want to wait.
You will recognize him easily, so don't ask me any more,
just an ordinary little elf...
