François Guilbaud : [singing] I've never made love with such a beautiful girl.

Edith Leroyer : I only work half-time.
-
Edith Leroyer : [singing] Nothing else matters anymore. I'm in love for the first time. Words seem empty to express such powerful feelings. I love his skin, his scent, his strength, his tenderness, his laugh. I miss him when he's barely left my side. I want him to touch me, to have me - to take me way.
-
Margot Langlois : [singing] How did you get in?
Edith Leroyer : I still have a key.

-
Margot Langlois : [singing] What's the situation in the streets?

Edith Leroyer : That's enough!
-
Edith Leroyer : [singing] I couldn't even pay Madame Sforza. You think she enjoys doing it for free?
Edmond Leroyer : I don't want you seeing that old whore again. I don't work all week so you can blow all my money on fortune-tellers.

-
Edmond Leroyer : [singing] You should be ashamed! You walk around like that?
Edith Leroyer : [naked under a fur coat] It's your fault. I have nothing to wear.
Edmond Leroyer : That's no excuse. So now you're a streetwalker? The strikers must have loved it. Get out! Put on some clothes! Don't come back until you're decent!
-
Edith Leroyer : [singing] Good evening.
François Guilbaud : Good evening.
Edith Leroyer : [exposes her naked body under her fur coat] Shocked? Or just afraid I'll catch cold?

Edith Leroyer : Oh, I don't care about the money.

Edith Leroyer : I have no choice now that I've met you.
-
Edith Leroyer : [singing] You're so handsome.
François Guilbaud : You're so beautiful. I love the softness of your skin.
Edith Leroyer : I love the softness in your eyes.
-
Edith Leroyer : [singing] Francois, my love, you're here! I love you so. I found myself all alone in that dreary room and I got afraid.
François Guilbaud : Of what?
Edith Leroyer : I don't know. Afraid you were just a dream. Afraid I'd lost you. I couldn't wait till tonight.
François Guilbaud : I'm here, darling.
-
Margot Langlois : [singing] Your loving husband waited for you here all night with a razor in hand. He was beside himself. Mad with jealousy. He threatened me. He wants your hide.
