These English lyric translations are not yet verified.
Dans ce matin trop chaud
In this morning too hot
Où nos larmes se font fines
Where our tears get thin
Où l'espoir rétrécit
Where hope narrows
Entre la corde et la cime
Between the rope and the top
Il y a nous, il y a nous
There's us, there's us
C'est dans ce coup de dés
It's in that roll of the dice
Que nos âmes se déplacent
Let our souls move
Dans ce corps épuisé
In this exhausted body
Écrasé à la masse
Crushed to the mass
Jusqu'à vous, jusqu'à vous
Up to you, up to you
Sur ce radeau bancal
On this wobbly raft
Où les murènes s'écrasent
Where moray eels crash
Où le vent devient fou
Where the wind goes crazy
De ces flots cannibales
From these cannibalized streams
Il y a nous, il y a nous
There's us, there's us
Il y a nous, il y a nous
There's us, there's us
J'ai caché des messages
I hid messages
Dans des boutons de roses
In rose buds
Que tu ne pourras lire
That you won't be able to read
Que si elles sont écloses
That if they are hatched
Jusqu'au bout, jusqu'au bout
All the way to the end, to the end
Ils auront leurs pétales
They'll have their petals
Pour couvrir leurs visages
To cover their faces
Si l'océan avale
If the ocean swallows
Quelques-unes de leurs plages
Some of their beaches
Jusqu'au cou, jusqu'au cou
Up to the neck, up to the neck
Mais il y a nous
But there's us
Il y a nous
There's us
Il y a nous
There's us
Il y a nous
There's us
Sur ce radeau bancal
On this wobbly raft
Où les murènes s'écrasent
Where moray eels crash
Où le vent devient fou
Where the wind goes crazy
De ces flots cannibales
From these cannibalized streams
Il y a nous
There's us
Il y a nous
There's us
Mais il y a nous
But there's us
Il y a nous
There's us
Il y a nous
There's us
Il y a nous
There's us
Il y a nous
There's us
Il y a nous
There's us
Il y a nous
There's us
Il y a nous
There's us
