Les pensées que je médite
The thoughts that I meditate
Sont plus noires que l'anthracite
Are blacker than anthracite
Mais que faire quand tu te fous
But what to do when you're mad
Si éperdument de nous
So in love with us
Si à rire je t'incite
If you laugh I encourage you
C'est que mon humour anthracite
It's just my dark humor
A tourné en dérision
Made fun of
Ton dédain et ma passion
Your disdain and my passion
Mais prends garde ma petite
But be careful my little one
À mon humeur anthracite
In my charcoal mood
J'arracherai animal
I will snatch animal
Le cri et les fleurs du mal
The cry and the flowers of evil
Fleurs de serre fleurs maudites
Greenhouse flowers cursed flowers
À la nuit noire anthracite
In the dark anthracite night
Je les prendrai malgré toi
I will take them despite you
Sous les ronces de tes doigts
Under the brambles of your fingers
Allons viens, viens et fais vite
Come on, come on and be quick
Que ta chaleur anthracite
May your anthracite heat
Vienne réchauffer mon cœur
Come warm my heart
Et refroidir ma fureur
And cool my fury
Tout contre moi tu t'agites
Right against me you are agitated
Dans une rage anthracite
In an anthracite rage
Mais qu'importe si tu mords
But what does it matter if you bite
Je veux ton âme et ton corps
I want your soul and your body
C'est ton regard que j'évite
It's your look that I avoid
Car le mien est anthracite
Because mine is anthracite
Et je n'veux point que tu voies
And I don't want you to see
Tout l'amour que j'ai pour toi
All the love I have for you
Je t'aime ô ma belle Aphrodite
I love you oh my beautiful Aphrodite
A l'âme noir anthracite
With an anthracite black core
Mais plus t'aime t'aimerai
But the more you love you will love you
Plus me mine minerai
More mine ore
