lyrics

Lakmé: Dôme épais le jasmin
(THICK DOME OF JASMINE)
Mallika: Sous le dôme épais où le blanc jasmin
(UNDER THE DENSE CANOPY WHERE THE WHITE JASMINE,)

L.: À la rose s'assemble,
(BLENDS WITH THE ROSES,)
M.: À la rose s'assemble,
(THAT BLENDS WITH THE ROSES,)

L.: Rive en fleurs, frais matin,
(BANK IN BLOOM, FRESH MORNING,)
M.: Sur la rive en fleurs, riant au matin,
(ON THE FLOWERING BANK, LAUGHING IN THE MORNING,)

L.: Nous appellent ensemble.
(CALL US TOGETHER.)
M.: Viens, descendons ensemble.
(COME, LET US DRIFT DOWN TOGETHER.)

L.: Ah! glissons en suivant
(AH! LET'S GLIDE ALONG)
M.: Doucement glissons; De son flot charmant
(LET US GENTLY GLIDE ALONG; FOR ITS ENCHANTING FLOW)

L.: Le courant fuyant;
(THE FLEEING CURRENT;)
M.: Suivons le courant fuyant;
(LET US FOLLOW THE FLEEING CURRENT;)

L.: Dans l'onde frémissante,
(ON THE RIPPLING SURFACE,)
M.: Dans l’onde frémissante,
(ON THE RIPPLING SURFACE,)

L.: D'une main nonchalante,
(WITH A NONCHALANT HAND,)
M.: D’une main nonchalante,
(WITH A NONCHALANT HAND,)

L.: Gagnons le bord,
(LET'S GO TO THE SHORE,)
M.: Viens, gagnons le bord
(COME, LET'S GO TO THE SHORE)

L.: Où l'oiseau chante,
(WHERE THE BIRD SINGS,)
M.: Où la source dort.
(WHERE THE SPRING SLEEPS.)

L.: l'oiseau, l'oiseau chante.
(THE BIRD, THE BIRD SINGS.)
M.: Et l’oiseau, l’oiseau chante.
(AND THE BIRD, THE BIRD SINGS.)

L.: Dôme épais, blanc jasmin,
(THICK DOME, WHITE JASMINE,)
M.: Sous le dôme épais, Sous le blanc jasmin,
(UNDER THE DENSE CANOPY, UNDER THE WHITE JASMINE,)

L.: Nous appellent ensemble!
(CALL US TOGETHER!)
M.: Ah! descendons ensemble!
(AH! LET'S DRIFT DOWN TOGETHER!)
