Sable et ciel
Sand and sky
Se mélangent dans les ruelles
Mix in the alleys
Où les gens attendent une liberté qui traîne
Where people wait for a freedom that drags
Où les uniformes en noir et blanc rappellent
Where the black and white uniforms remind
Que c'était peut-être qu'un rêve
That maybe it was just a dream
Peut-être qu'un rêve
Maybe a dream
Sable et ciel
Sand and sky
Ne dérangent pas la ville beige
Don't disturb the beige city
Elle a vu passer les pharaons, les reines
She saw the pharaohs, the queens pass
Elle a effacé le sang qui la tachait
She wiped away the blood that stained her
Sans jamais trouver la paix
Without ever finding peace
Trouver la paix
Find peace
Y a du monde partout
There are people everywhere
Qui m'ressemble un peu
Who looks a little like me
J'me vois dans vos yeux
I see myself in your eyes
J'veux plus être loin d'vous
I don't want to be far from you anymore
Sable et ciel
Sand and sky
Ne laissent pas passer l'hiver
Don't let winter pass
On ne le ressent que dans le cœur des mères
We only feel it in the hearts of mothers
Qui ont bien voulu laisser fuir leurs soleils
Who were willing to let their suns escape
Pour construire le monde d'après
To build the world after
Le monde d'après
The world after
Y a du monde partout
There are people everywhere
Qui m'ressemble un peu
Who looks a little like me
J'me vois dans vos yeux
I see myself in your eyes
J'veux plus être loin d'vous
I don't want to be far from you anymore
Y a du monde partout
There are people everywhere
Qui m'ressemble un peu
Who looks a little like me
J'me vois dans vos yeux
I see myself in your eyes
J'veux plus être loin d'vous
I don't want to be far from you anymore
Sable et ciel sur les photos de mon père
Sand and sky in my father's photos
Dans mes souvenirs de ceux qui m'ont vu naître
In my memories of those who saw me born
Qui m'ont vu partir vers les terres de ma mère
Who saw me leave for my mother's land
Sans savoir si j'reviendrai
Without knowing if I will come back
Mais j'reviendrai
But I will come back
