    Lakmé: Dôme épais le jasmin
    Mallika: Sous le dôme épais où le blanc jasmin
    
    L.: À la rose s'assemble,
    M.: À la rose s'assemble,
    
    L.: Rive en fleurs, frais matin,
    M.: Sur la rive en fleurs, riant au matin,
    
    L.: Nous appellent ensemble.
    M.: Viens, descendons ensemble.
    
    L.: Ah! glissons en suivant
    M.: Doucement glissons; De son flot charmant
    
    L.: Le courant fuyant;
    M.: Suivons le courant fuyant;
    
    L.: Dans l'onde frémissante,
    M.: Dans l’onde frémissante,
    
    L.: D'une main nonchalante,
    M.: D’une main nonchalante,
    
    L.: Gagnons le bord,
    M.: Viens, gagnons le bord
    
    L.: Où l'oiseau chante,
    M.: Où la source dort.
    
    L.: l'oiseau, l'oiseau chante.
    M.: Et l’oiseau, l’oiseau chante.
    
    L.: Dôme épais, blanc jasmin,
    M.: Sous le dôme épais, Sous le blanc jasmin,
    
    L.: Nous appellent ensemble!
    M.: Ah! descendons ensemble!
    
    L.: Mais, je ne sais quelle crainte subite
    s’empare de moi.
    Quand mon père va seul à leur ville maudite,
    Je tremble, je tremble d'effroi!
    
    M.: Pour que le Dieu Ganeça le protège,
    Jusqu'à l'étang où s'ébattent joyeux
    Les cygnes aux ailes de neige,
    Allons cueillir les lotus bleus.
    
    L.: Oui, pres des cygnes aux ailes de neige,
    Allons cueillir les lotus bleus.
    
    L: Dôme épais le jasmin
    M: Sous le dôme épais où le blanc jasmin
    ...
    L.: Nous appellent ensemble!
    M.: Ah! descendons ensemble!

    Thick dome of jasmine
    Under the dense canopy where the white jasmine,
    
    Blends with the rose,
    Blends with the rose,
    
    Bank in bloom, fresh morning,
    On the flowering bank, laughing in the morning,
    
    Call us together.
    Come, let us drift down together.
    
    Ah! Let's glide along
    Let us gently glide along; With its enchanting flow
    
    The fleeing current;
    Let us follow the fleeing current;
    
    On the rippling surface,
    On the rippling surface,
    
    With a lazy hand,
    With a lazy hand,
    
    Let's go to the shore,
    Come, let's go to the shore
    
    Where the bird sings,
    Where the spring sleeps.
    
    the bird, the bird sings.
    And the bird, the bird sings.
    
    Thick dome, white jasmine,
    Under the dense canopy, Under the white jasmine,
    
    We call together!
    Ah! Let's drift down together!
    
    But, an eerie feeling of distress
    overcomes me.
    When my father goes into their damned city
    I tremble, I tremble with fright!
    
    In order to be protected by Ganesh
    Let us go to the pond
    Where swans with wings of snow joyfully play
    And pick blue lotuses.
    
    Yes, near the swans with wings of snow,
    And pick blue lotuses.
    
    Thick dome of jasmine
    Under the dense canopy where the white jasmine,
    ...
    We call together!
    Ah! Let's drift down together!
