Tu t'en vas à la dérive
You're drifting away
Sur la rivière du souvenir
On the river of memory
Et moi, courant sur la rive
And me, running on the shore
Je te crie de revenir
I'm screaming for you to come back
Mais, lentement, tu t'éloignes
But slowly you move away
Et dans ta course éperdue
And in your frantic race
Peu à peu, je te regagne
Little by little, I win you back
Un peu du terrain perdu
A little lost ground
De temps en temps, tu t'enfonces
From time to time you sink
Dans le liquide mouvant
In the moving liquid
Ou bien, frôlant quelques ronces
Or, brushing against some brambles
Tu hésites et tu m'attends
You hesitate and you wait for me
En te cachant la figure
Hiding your face
Dans ta robe retroussée
In your rolled up dress
De peur que ne te défigurent
Lest you be disfigured
Et la honte et les regrets
And the shame and the regrets
Tu n'es plus qu'une pauvre épave
You are nothing more than a poor wreck
Chienne crevée au fil de l'eau
female dog punctured by water
Mais je reste ton esclave
But I remain your slave
Et plonge dans le ruisseau
And dive into the stream
Quand le souvenir s'arrête
When the memory stops
Et l'océan de l'oubli
And the ocean of oblivion
Brisant nos coeurs et nos têtes
Breaking our hearts and our heads
À jamais, nous réunit
Forever brings us together
