J'ai travaillé des années, sans répit, jour et nuit
I worked for years, without respite, day and night
Pour réussir, pour gravir le sommet

En oubliant souvent dans ma course contre le temps
Often forgetting in my race against time
Mes amis, mes amours, mes emmerdes

À corps perdu, j'ai couru, assoiffé, obstiné
Headlong, I ran, thirsty, stubborn
Vers l'horizon, l'illusion, vers l'abstrait
Towards the horizon, the illusion, towards the abstract
L'abstrait

En sacrifiant, c'est navrant, je m'en accuse à présent

Our loves made love very well
Nos emmerdes étaient ceux de notre âge

Où l'argent, c'est dommage, éperonnait nos jours
Where money, it's a shame, spurred our days
Pour être fier, je suis fier, entre nous, je l'avoue
To be proud, I am proud, between us, I admit it
J'ai fait ma vie mais il y a un mais
I made my life but there is a but
Mais il y a un mais

Je donnerais ce que j'ai pour retrouver, je l'admets

Ils sont sérieux mais près d'eux, j'ai toujours le regret de
They are serious but around them, I always regret
Nos amis, nos amours, nos emmerdes
Our friends, our loves, our troubles
Nos amis étaient plein d'insouciance
Our friends were full of carefree
Nos amours avaient le corps brûlant
Our loves had burning bodies
Nos emmerdes, aujourd'hui, quand t'y penses
Our troubles today, when you think about it
Avaient peu d'importance et c'était le bon temps
Didn't matter and it was a good time
Les canulars, les pétards, les folies, les orgies
The hoaxes, the firecrackers, the madness, the orgies
Le jour du bac, le cognac, les refrains
Baccalaureate day, cognac, choruses
Tout ce qui fait, je le sais, que je n'oublierai jamais
Everything that I know I will never forget
Mes amis, mes amours, mes emmerdes
My friends, my loves, my troubles
