Gitan Lyrics in English Garou

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Gitan by Garou from French to English.
Gypsy
I dreamed as a child of living free like a gypsy
I saw beaches of black sand where ran
Wild horses
And I drew in my notebooks the secret paths
Of the mountains of Spain
Gypsy
When later I learned my first guitar chords
On the roads I left without luggage and dreaming
Of other landscapes
Where I followed the travelers
In their caravans
To the sound of gypsy violins
Living my life like a gypsy
Having music in my blood
And for love, having in my skin
Only one woman at a time
Living my life like a gypsy
Living my life as I see fit
Having freedom as a flag
Without faith or law as a creed
Gypsy
I am and will remain so for the time of my life
My guitars are from America and my landscapes
Of vast white spaces
Where I roll alone in my caravan in eternal exile
In the jungle of cities
Living my life like a gypsy
Having music in my blood
And for love, having in my skin
Only one woman at a time
Living my life like a gypsy
Living my life as I see fit
Having freedom as a flag
Without faith or law as a creed
Living my life like a gypsy
Having music in my blood
And for love, having in my skin
Only one woman at a time
Living my life like a gypsy
Earning my living from the spirit of the times
Having freedom as a flag
Without faith or law as a creed

"Garou's song 'Gitan' paints a vivid picture of a longing for freedom and a nomadic lifestyle, inspired by the romanticized image of gypsies. The lyrics express a desire to live life on the road, following the music and embracing a carefree existence. The protagonist dreams of traveling with only a guitar, seeking love and adventure in a world without constraints. Through the imagery of wild horses, secret mountain paths, and the sound of gypsy violins, the song captures the essence of living life on one's own terms, guided by the music in one's soul and the pursuit of freedom above all else."
