La lumière jaillira
The light will come out
Claire et blanche un matin
Claire and white one morning
Brusquement devant moi
Suddenly in front of me
Quelque part en chemin
Somewhere along the way
La lumière jaillira
The light will come out
Et la reconnaîtrai
And recognize her
Pour l´avoir tant de fois
To have it so many times
Chaque jour espérée
Every day we hoped for
La lumière jaillira
The light will come out
Et de la voir si belle
And to see her so beautiful
Je connaîtrai pourquoi
I'll know why
J´avais tant besoin d´elle
I needed her so much
La lumière jaillira
The light will come out
Et nous nous marierons
And we'll get married
Pour n´être qu´un combat
To be just a fight
N´être qu´une chanson
Being just a song
La lumière jaillira
The light will come out
Et je l´inviterai
And I'll invite him
A venir sous mon toit
Coming under my roof
Pour y tout transformer
To transform everything
La lumière jaillira
The light will come out
Et déjà modifié
And already modified
Lui avouerai du doigt
Will confess to him
Les meubles du passé
Furniture from the past
La lumière jaillira
The light will come out
Et j´aurai un palais
And I'll have a palace
Tout ne change-t-il pas
Doesn't everything change
Au soleil de juillet?
In the July sun?
La lumière jaillira
The light will come out
Et toute ma maison
And my whole house
Assise au feu de bois
Sitting on a wood fire
Apprendra ses chansons
Learn his songs
La lumière jaillira
The light will come out
Parsemant mes silences
Dotting my silences
De sourires de joie
Smiles of joy
Qui meurent et recommencent
Who die and start over
La lumière jaillira
The light will come out
Qu´éternel voyageur
That eternal traveller
Mon cœur en vain chercha
My heart in vain sought
Mais qui était en mon cœur
But that was in my heart
La lumière jaillira
The light will come out
Reculant l´horizon
Stepping back the horizon
La lumière jaillira
The light will come out
Et portera ton nom
And will bear your name
