Aline

I HAD DRAWN, ON THE SAND

HER SWEET FACE, THAT SMILED TO ME

THEN IT RAINED, ON THIS BEACH

IN THIS STORM, SHE DISAPPEARED

AND I YELLED, YELLED, ALINE, TO COME BACK

AND I CRIED, CRIED, OH, I WAS TOO SAD

I SAT NEAR HER SOUL

BUT THAT PRETTY LADY, HAD RAN AWAY

I LOOKED FOR HER, WITHOUT BELIEVING IN IT ANYMORE

 AND WITHOUT  HOPE, TO GUIDE ME

AND I YELLED, YELLED, ALINE, TO COME BACK

AND I CRIED, CRIED, OH! I WAS IN SO MUCH PAIN

I ONLY KEPT HER SWEET FACE

JUST LIKE A WRECKAGE ON THE WET SAND

AND I YELLED, YELLED, ALINE,  FOR HER TO COME BACK

AND I CRIED. CRIED, OH! I WAS IN SO MUCH PAIN

AND I YELLED, YELLED, ALINE, TO COME BACK

AND I CRIED, CRIED, OH! I WAS SO SAD

AND I YELLED, YELLED...

Aline

J'avais dessiné, sur le sable
son doux visage, qui me souriait
Puis il a plu, sur cette plage
dans cet orage, elle a disparu
Et j'ai crié, crié, Aline, pour qu'elle revienne
Et j'ai pleuré, pleuré, oh j'avait trop de peine

Je me suis assis, auprès de son âme
mais la belle dame, s'était enfuie
Je l'ai cherchée, sans plus y croire
et sans un espoir, pour me guider
Et j'ai crié, crié, Aline, pour qu'elle revienne
Et j'ai pleuré, pleuré, oh j'avait trop de peine

Je n'ai gardé, que ce doux visage
comme une épave, sur le sable mouillé
Et j'ai crié, crié, Aline, pour qu'elle revienne
Et j'ai pleuré, pleuré, oh j'avait trop de peine

Et j'ai crié, crié, Aline, pour qu'elle revienne
Et j'ai pleuré, pleuré, oh j'avait trop de peine
Et j'ai crié, crié...

Here is an English version, which can be sung:

Didn’t know why I drew On shifting sand dunes A face so sweet Yet a smile so distant

Then came the rain Eclipsed the beaches Amidst that storm My Aline disappeared

Alone there I sat Embraced by sorrows The beauty that I drew Was beside me no more

I searched for her Among the sand dunes Without a hope To guide or misguide (me)

I could only recall A gentle sweet face The tears on the sand Were they mine or the rain’s?

Chorus: How I did shout and pleaded, Aline, where had she gone? How I cried out and begged her, oh please, please stay
