In a few moments you’ll be departing,
And I’ll dolefully say goodbye.
Our love should never end.
Promise me you’ll take care of yourself.
Bon voyage, sweetheart.

You showed no sign of discontentment,
And you never looked upset or sad.
You must have other reasons for leaving.
If you must go, do what you have to do.
Bon voyage, sweetheart.

Though I’ll be a captive of loneliness,
You’ll always be the one in my thoughts.
I’ll never forget the love you gave me.
And when I’m alone day and night,
I’ll live my life as if you’re still around.

You know that we belong together.
I can’t picture a life without being with you.
It’s not my wish to lose your love,
You’re leaving me and this is goodbye.
Bon voyage, sweetheart.

The time for tears has arrived.
You’ve resolutely made up your mind,
And there’s nothing I can do.
I can only say I’ll miss you, my love.
Bon voyage, sweetheart.
