Demain, Peut-être Lyrics in English Tim Dup

Home / Lyrics Translation / Tim Dup / Demain, Peut-être

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Demain, Peut-être by Tim Dup from French to English.

How many tears

Of salt drops

And black skies

Of voices calling

How many pearls

Of warm blood

Of sad frescoes

And paintings

How many tons

Of troubled dust

Of 'I wonder'

What is war

Of good feelings

In rose water

Cast in cement

No break

How many fears

And cold sweats

Red glows

And sandbanks

Where children

With a gloomy look

Don't know how to play anymore

No school bags

Paths of ruins

And soul waves

Bodies getting damaged

And in the flames

One more day

Tomorrow, maybe

Survival outside

I say my prayer

SONG MEANING

Tim Dup paints a haunting picture of conflict and resilience in Demain, Peut-être. Tears become “gouttes de sel,” skies turn black, and children wander through ruins where schoolbags have no place. Each verse piles on vivid images of war – rouges lueurs, corps qui s’abîment, chemins de ruines – inviting us to feel both the physical devastation and the emotional fatigue that follow violence.

Yet the refrain « Demain, peut-être » keeps a fragile spark alive. Beneath the rubble lies a quiet prayer for change: that tomorrow, maybe, compassion will pour like cement strong enough to rebuild what hate has shattered. The song is a moving reminder that even in the darkest nights, hope stubbornly survives, waiting for the dawn we create together.
