Je sais qu'on me tuera
I know they will kill me
Bien avant que je meure
Long before I die
Et je connais mon assassin
And I know my killer
Mon assassin sera une jeune fille
My murderer will be a young girl
Elle n'est pas née encore mais demain
She hasn't been born yet but tomorrow
Elle sera là sur mon chemin
She will be there on my way
Parfaite des cheveux aux chevilles
Perfect from hair to ankles
Et moi j'aurai vingt ans, vingt ans de plus
And I will be twenty years old, twenty years older
J'aimerai toujours la nuit, le soleil
I will always love the night, the sun
Je me croirai presque pareil
I'll think I'm almost the same
En somme au jeune homme que je fus
In short, to the young man that I was
C'est alors qu'elle et moi on se rencontrera
That's when she and I will meet
Je la vois, elle arrive, un garçon à son bras
I see her, she arrives, a boy on her arm
Ils sont beaux, le monde est beau
They are beautiful, the world is beautiful
Et moi aussi, pourquoi pas
And me too, why not
Oui, je suis pareil à eux
Yes, I'm the same as them
Alors je leur souris et je passe et dans mon dos
So I smile at them and I pass and behind my back
Elle, elle dit ces mots T'as vu le vieux
She, she says these words, have you seen the old man?
Mon assassin sera cette jeune fille
My assassin will be this young girl
Qui n'est pas née encore mais demain
Who hasn't been born yet but tomorrow
Elle passera sur mon chemin
She will pass my way
Et moi je cesserai de vivre
And I will stop living
Je n'aurai plus de nuits ni de matins
I will no longer have nights or mornings
Je n'aurai plus en moi que du vide
I will only have emptiness inside me
Il n'y aura plus que des rides
There will be nothing left but wrinkles
Au creux des lignes de ma main
In the hollow of the lines of my hand
Il n'y aura plus de jeunes filles
There will be no more young girls
Il n'y aura plus d'assassins
There will be no more murderers
