Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Vents Contraires by Eugénie from French to English.

Le blizzard est à mes trousses

The blizzard is chasing me

Les hivers me paraissent un peu farouches

The winters seem a bit shy to me

Manquant d'éclat

Lacking brilliance

Sous les draps de nos émois

Under the sheets of our emotions

Je me ressasse cette odeur de tabac froid

I dwell on this smell of cold tobacco

Qui s'en va

That goes away

Face à la belle imposture

Facing the beautiful deceit

Je file à toute allure

I rush away

Loin de ce doux poison d'avril

Far from this sweet April poison

Et je roule en solitaire

And I drive alone

Lassée des vents contraires

Tired of the contrary winds

Loin de ce doux poison d'avril

Far from this sweet April poison

Loin de ce doux poison d'avril

Far from this sweet April poison

Loin de ce doux poison d'avril

Far from this sweet April poison

Tu m'as eu je suis K.O

You got me, I'm knocked out

J'bois la tasse dans ton regarde menthe à l'eau

I'm drowning in your minty gaze

Et je flanche

And I falter

Dans l'antichambre

In the waiting room

Je ne fais rien qu'attendre

I do nothing but wait

Mon coeur est sombre

My heart is dark

Il pourrait bien se suspendre

It could well hang itself

Face à la belle imposture

Facing the beautiful deceit

Je file à toute allure

I rush away

Loin de ce doux poison d'avril

Far from this sweet April poison

Et je roule en solitaire

And I drive alone

Lassée des vents contraires

Tired of the contrary winds

Loin de ce doux poison d'avril

Far from this sweet April poison

Loin de ce doux poison d'avril

Far from this sweet April poison

Face à la belle imposture

Facing the beautiful deceit

Je file à toute allure

I rush away

Loin de ce doux poison d'avril

Far from this sweet April poison

Et je roule en solitaire

And I drive alone

Lassée des vents contraires

Tired of the contrary winds

Loin de ce doux poison d'avril

Far from this sweet April poison

Loin de ce doux poison d'avril

Far from this sweet April poison

Et je roule en solitaire

And I drive alone

Lassée des vents contraires

Tired of the contrary winds

Loin de ce doux poison d'avril

Far from this sweet April poison
