Mon cher ami! |
My dear friend! |
|
| Je viendrai, bien sûr, à l'heure indiquée. Quant à mon frère, il Vous remercie de tout son cœur, — mais pour cette fois il ne pourra profiter de Votre trop aimable invitation, ayant déjà promis de déjeuner chez un ami. | Of course I will come at the hour you've fixed. As for my brother, he thanks you heartily, but this time he will not be able to take advantage of your ever so kind invitation, since he has already promised to have lunch with a friend | |
|
Bien à Vous, |
Yours sincerely, |
|
| P. Tchaïkovsky | P. Tchaikovsky |
