Je ne savais pas prier
I didn't know how to pray
Je n'avais pas la manière
I didn't have the way
Si quelquefois je l'ai fait
If sometimes I did
C'était lorsque j'avais faim
It was when I was hungry
Maintenant chaque matin
Now every morning
Je fais la même prière
I'm saying the same prayer
Donnez-moi aujourd'hui
Give me today
Son amour quotidien
His daily love
Les arbres ne peuvent pas vivre sans la pluie
Trees can't live without rain
Les fleurs ne peuvent pas éclore dans la nuit
Flowers cannot bloom in the night
Sans eau les poissons d'or ne respiraient plus
Without water the gold fish could no longer breathe
Et moi… sans toi je suis perdue…
And me... without you I am lost..
Sans brise le voilier
Without breeze the sailboat
Ne pourrait jamais avancer
Could never move forward
Sans la musique
Without the music
Personne ne pourrait plus dancer
No one could dance anymore
Sans le soleil les oiseaux ne chanteraient plus
Without the sun the birds would no longer sing
Et moi… sans toi je suis perdue…
And me... without you I am lost..
Je n'ai ni foi ni loi
I have no faith or law
Quand tu es loin de moi
When you're away from me
Tout est sombre et sans joie
Everything is dark and joyless
Sans toi…
Without you..
Sans toi, tout semble amer
Without you, everything seems bitter
La terre est un enfer
The earth is a hell
Tu m'es plus nécessaire
You're more needed for me
Que l'air…
Let the air..
Les blés pour se dorer ont besoin de lumière
Wheats to bask need light
Dieu pour être adoré a besoin de mystère
God to be worshipped needs mystery
Le coeur des hommes sans amour
The heart of men without love
Ne battrait plus
Wouldn't beat again
Et moi… sans toi je suis perdue…
And me... without you I am lost..
Le coeur des hommes
The hearts of men
Sans amour ne battrait plus
Without love would no longer beat
Et moi… sans toi je suis perdue…
And me... without you I am lost..
