Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Le Sud by Feu! Chatterton from French to English.
These English lyric translations are not yet verified.
C'est un endroit
It's a place
Qui ressemble à la Louisiane
Which looks like Louisiana
Il y a du linge
There is laundry
Étendu sur la terrasse
Lying on the terrace
Et c'est joli
And it's pretty
On dirait le Sud
It looks like the South
Le temps dure longtemps
Time lasts a long time
Et la vie sûrement
And life surely
Plus d'un million d'années
Over a million years old
Et toujours en été
And always in summer
Y a plein d'enfants
There are lots of children
Qui se roulent sur la pelouse
Who roll around on the lawn
Y a plein de chiens
There are lots of dogs
Y a même un chat
There's even a cat
Une tortue, des poissons rouges
A turtle, goldfish
Il ne manque rien
Nothing is missing
On dirait le Sud
It looks like the South
Le temps dure longtemps
Time lasts a long time
Et la vie sûrement
And life surely
Plus d'un million d'années
Over a million years old
Et toujours en été
And always in summer
Un jour ou l'autre
One day or another
Il faudra qu'il y ait la guerre
There will have to be war
On le sait bien
We know it well
On n'aime pas ça
We don't like that
Mais on ne sait pas quoi faire
But we don't know what to do
On dit 'c'est le destin'
They say 'it's destiny'
Tant pis pour le Sud
So much the worse for the South
C'était pourtant bien
It was good though
Tant pis pour le Sud
So much the worse for the South
C'était pourtant bien
It was good though
Tant pis pour le Sud
So much the worse for the South
C'était pourtant bien
It was good though
On aurait pu vivre
We could have lived
Plus d'un million d'années
Over a million years old
Et toujours en été
And always in summer
