Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Aux sombres héros de l'amer by Noir Désir from French to English.
These English lyric translations are not yet verified.
Aux sombres héros de l'amer
To the dark heroes of the bitter
Qui ont su traverser les océans du vide
Who have been able to cross the oceans of emptiness
A la mémoire de nos frères
In memory of our brothers
Dont les sanglots si longs faisaient couler l'acide
Whose so long sobs made the acid flow
Always lost in the sea
Always lost in the sea
Always lost in the sea
Always lost in the sea
Tout part toujours dans les flots
Everything always goes in the waves
Au fond des nuits sereines
At the bottom of the serene nights
Ne vois-tu rien venir
Don't you see anything coming
Les naufragés et leurs peines qui jetaient l'encre ici
The castaways and their sorrows that threw the ink here
Et arrêtaient d'écrire
And stopped writing
Always lost in the sea
Always lost in the sea
Always lost in the sea
Always lost in the sea
Ami, qu'on crève d'une absence
Friend, let's die of an absence
Ou qu'on crève un abcès
Or that we die an abscess
C'est le poison qui coule
It's the poison that's flowing
Certains nageaient sous les lignes de flottaison intimes
Some swam under the intimate waterlines
A l'intérieur des foules
Inside the crowds
Aux sombres héros de l'amer
To the dark heroes of the bitter
Qui ont su traverser les océans du vide
Who have been able to cross the oceans of emptiness
A la memoire de nos frères
In memory of our brothers
Dont les sanglots si longs faisaient couler l'acide
Whose so long sobs made the acid flow
Always lost in the sea
Always lost in the sea
Always lost in the sea
Always lost in the sea
