Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Septembre en attendant by Noir Désir from French to English.
These English lyric translations are not yet verified.
Juste le temps de battre des cils
Just enough time to beat eyelashes
Un souffle, un éclat bleu
A breath, a blue glow
Un instant, qui dit mieux
A moment, which says better
L'équilibre est fragile
Balance is fragile
J'ai tout vu, je n'ai rien retenu
I've seen it all, I haven't held anything back
Pendant que ton ombre en douce te quitte
While your shadow quietly leaves you
Entends-tu les autres qui se battent, à la périphérie?
Do you hear the others fighting on the periphery?
Et même si tes yeux
And even if your eyes
Dissolvent les comètes
Dissolve comets
Qui me passent une à une
Who pass me one by one
Au travers de la tête
Through the head
J'y pense encore, j'y pense
I'm still thinking about it, I'm thinking about it
J'y pense encore, j'y pense
I'm still thinking about it, I'm thinking about it
A cette époque on écoutait qu'à peine
At that time we listened that barely
Le clicloc des pendules
The clicloc of the clocks
A l'heure où je te parle, sans entraves
As I speak to you, unfettered
Ils circulent
They circulate
En septembre, en attendant la suite
In September, pending the next
Des carnages, il se peut
Carnage, it may be
Qu'arrive la limite
What happens the limit
J'y pense encore, j'y pense
I'm still thinking about it, I'm thinking about it
Ensemble, maintenant
Together, now
On peut prendre la fuite
We can run away
Disparus pfuuuit
Disappeared pfuuuit
Avant qu'ils aient fait ouf
Before they did ouf
J'y pense encore, j'y pense
I'm still thinking about it, I'm thinking about it
J'y pense encore, j'y pense
I'm still thinking about it, I'm thinking about it
J'y pense
I'm thinking about it
J'y pense
I'm thinking about it
