Avoir une fille (having a daughter)

To Have a Girl

Count Capulet
To have a girl
A little opal
Eyes that shine
Skin so pale

To have a girl
It\'s to make a woman
A little virtuoso
Before her scale

To have a girl
A heart of sand
Gift of God
Gift of the devil

To have a girl
It\'s to commit a crime
Where the guilty is the victim
To have a girl

She is my life, she is my blood
She is the fruit of my 20 years
And I curse all her lovers
She is my life, she is my blood
To have a girl, it\'s to tremble with fear
That she wears make-up for a liar
To have a girl, it\'s to never anymore
To treat the women like I did her
To have a girl

I hate the men and their looks
I know their ruses and their victories
And when comes the day when one of them
Will take my girl while calling me \'Sir\'
Then that day and for ever
I will close with double locks
My heart and I will become deaf
To have a girl it\'s to continue to hope
And believe still that when comes the day of my death
She will bear all at the bottom of her heart
This spark of this or that which in it\'s turn
And for love comes to cry the heart so heavy

To have a girl
A little opal
Of eyes shining
Skin so pale

To have a girl
It\'s to make a crime
Where the guilty is the victim
To have a girl
To have a girl
