Julia

Your smile is three times,
The circle of the earth, 
It’s sweeter than a California orange
Offered at noon twelve, outside the table,
Your smile refreshes me
As the source of sin,
He makes up a reason,
To live like a lizard
Caught by the sun,
To give answers
To all your questions,  
Your eyes also circle the earth three times.


Ton sourire fait trois fois,
Le tour de la terre, 
Il est plus doux qu’une orange de Californie
Offerte à midi douze, en dehors de la table,
Ton sourire me rafraichit
Comme la source d’un péché,
Il m’invente une raison,
Pour vivre comme un lézard
Attrapé par le soleil,
Pour donner des réponses
À toutes tes questions,  
Ton regard aussi fait trois fois le tour de la terre.
