Nos Rêves Lyrics in English by Izïa

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Nos Rêves by Izïa from French to English.
Avec nos armes, avec nos doutes
With our weapons, with our doubts
J'ai jamais su à quel point j'avais eu tort
I never knew how wrong I had been
Avec nos âmes, avec nos routes
With our souls, with our paths
Qui se séparent, j'ai cru voir venir la mort
That separate, I thought I saw death coming
De nos rêves, de nos rêves qui brûlaient fort
Of our dreams, of our dreams that burned brightly
De nos rêves, de nos rêves qui brûlent encore
Of our dreams, of our dreams that still burn
Tous nos rêves
All our dreams
Avec nos charmes aveugles et sourds
With our blind and deaf charms
On s'est laissé bercer par nos idées folles
We let ourselves be lulled by our crazy ideas
Avec nos phrases, qu'avec les coups
With our words, as much as with the blows
On s'est abîmés jusqu'à ce que s'étiolent
We damaged ourselves until they withered
Tous nos rêves, tous nos rêves qui brûlaient fort
All our dreams, all our dreams that burned brightly
Tous nos rêves, tous nos rêves qui brûlent encore
All our dreams, all our dreams that still burn
Si jamais l'on se quitte
If ever we leave each other
Si jamais je ne revois ton visage
If ever I don't see your face again
Je te retrouverai la nuit sauvage
I'll find you again in the wild night
Dans nos rêves
In our dreams
Avec les marques que laisse la foudre
With the marks that lightning leaves
Ça faisait mal de voir combien je t'adore
It hurt to see how much I adore you
Avec nos larmes qui seules s'écoulent
With our tears that flow alone
J'ai voulu vivre à jamais dans le décor
I wanted to live forever in the setting
De nos rêves, de nos rêves qui brûlaient fort
Of our dreams, of our dreams that burned brightly
De nos rêves, de nos rêves qui brûlent encore
Of our dreams, of our dreams that still burn
Avec nos âmes, avec nos routes
With our souls, with our paths
Qui se séparent, j'ai cru voir venir la mort
That separate, I thought I saw death coming
De nos rêves, de nos rêves qui brûlaient fort
Of our dreams, of our dreams that burned brightly
Tous nos rêves, tous nos rêves qui brûlent encore
All our dreams, all our dreams that still burn
Si jamais l'on se quitte
If ever we leave each other
Si jamais je ne revois ton visage
If ever I don't see your face again
Je te retrouverai la nuit sauvage
I'll find you again in the wild night
Dans nos rêves, dans nos rêves qui brûlent encore
In our dreams, in our dreams that still burn

Did you like this lyrics translation?

étiolent — wither / fade away

Étiolent comes from the verb s'étioler, which means to wither, fade away, or become weak due to lack of light or nourishment. It's a less common and more poetic word than simply saying something 'dies' or 'ends'.

In the context of the song, Izïa uses it to describe how their dreams, once burning brightly, start to fade and diminish due to the difficulties and conflicts in their relationship. It paints a vivid picture of dreams slowly losing their vitality, making it a poignant and memorable choice.
