Ici, il fait beau, il fait si froid dehors
Ça ne prendra pas bien longtemps
Un tout petit instant
Attends au moins la fin du slow
Contre toi, c'est si doux, si chaud.

Juste, juste un p'tit moment encore
Just, just a little more moment
Ici, il fait beau, il fait si froid dehors
Here, it's beautiful, it's so cold outside
Ça ne prendra pas bien longtemps
It won't take too long
Un tout petit instant
A very short moment
Attends au moins la fin du slow
Just wait until the end of the slow dance
Contre toi, c'est si doux, si chaud.
Against you, it's so gentle, so warm
