Ce jour tant attendu
This long awaited day
S'était levé pour nous
stood up for us
Tu étais étendue
You were lying
Moi j'étais comme un fou
I was like crazy
Deux coeurs battaient en toi
Two hearts beat inside you
Au rythme de mon coeur
To the rhythm of my heart
Et y avait tant de joie
And there was so much joy
Dans tes cris de douleur
In your cries of pain
Notre amour prenait corps
Our love was taking shape
Par ton corps torturé
By your tortured body
Et rien n'était plus fort
And nothing was stronger
Que l'instant qu'on vivait
That the moment we were living
Ce dont nous avions peur
What we were afraid of
Nous unissait bien plus
Unites us much more
Que le plus grand bonheur
May the greatest happiness
Ce jour tant attendu
This long awaited day
Ce jour tant attendu
This long awaited day
S'était levé enfin
Got up at last
J'étais comme perdu
I was like lost
Mais je ne pouvais rien
But I couldn't do anything
Rien pour toi qui souffrais
Nothing for you who suffered
Luttais contre le temps
Was fighting against time
Rien pour toi qui criais
Nothing for you who screamed
Tout en te débattant
While you struggle
Tes yeux cherchaient mes yeux
Your eyes searched my eyes
Qui regardaient les tiens
Who looked at yours
Et tes ongles furieux
And your angry nails
Se plantaient dans mes mains
Planted in my hands
Annonçant le bonheur
Announcing happiness
Pour deux êtres éperdus
For two distraught beings
Naissant dans la douleur
Born in pain
Ce jour tant attendu
This long awaited day
Et ton corps déchiré
And your torn body
Soudain s'est apaisé
Suddenly calmed down
En mettant au grand jour
By bringing to light
Le fruit de notre amour
the fruit of our love
